One of the best courses I've ever taken. loved every single bit of this course. It has really helped me construct a castle of knowledge about Project Management. When outside looking in, I didn't know where I should situate myself at so that I could start this journey, but thanks to this course I think I've found a point to start from and whenever I have something to ask or look for help, I can anchor this program to do so. it's a life-changer

I really enjoyed this course. The concepts were clearly taught with lots of real-world applications. I especially appreciated the videos of the Google employees and their respective journeys into project management.
I left the course having a solid understanding of the foundations of the role and responsibilites of a project manager. If you are thinking about making a pivot into project management, you can't go wrong with taking this course.

This course has given me an overall sight of PM specialty. I am very grateful for this opportunity. There are plenty of skills that I've learned during the process, it is even quite hard to name all of them. The only thing I'd like to share as of this moment is that it is really something I can do always and something I'd like to become a professional. A very big thank you to all of the developers of this course. Best regards and stay healthy.

When I start this course I don't know I have these hiden skills I would have never found myself without this PPM course since then I was very excited to learn more. For me, this course content, multi-media and the way we learned find excellent only the forum interaction it could have been better than it was I guess that was my thoughts besides this I am enjoying learning new things every day for me it was a pretty informative course for sure.

An awesome stepping stone with a lot of knowledge and jargon to enable you and advance anyone in the field of project management. A lot seemed familiar to what I was taught in my business management degree from the University of Johannesburg South Africa . I am just a bit disappointed that so much of the knowledge is just seen as the degree and if the title of the degree is not the same as the profession corporate doesnt see you as relevant.

I enjoyed Emilio's Energy and his way of explaining and breaking things down. Felt a connection even though this was pre-recorded if it makes sense. Overrall Thank You, Google and Emilio for this opprotunity especially for us that cannot really go out and take a jab at college due to the financial burden...These courses might spark the interest of a person who has the solution to something we all have been wanting and does not even know it.

This course is amazing! It gives you a general overview and insight into the main tools and methods for project management.
It really "takes you by the hand", so you can enroll in this course even if you do not know what does CEO means. Besides all that, the course is structured in such a way so you can be better equipped for entering the project management world.
Thank you so much Google for the scholarship, I am very very grateful for it!

Very comprehensive introduction to Project Management!
Having some ad hoc experience in the area, and recognising that many best practices are mostly based on common/good sense, the course reminded me immediately of issues that I had come across in my work life that could have been avoided if a more structured and informed approach had ben followed. Very useful! I am looking forward to working through the following courses of this series.

It is an amazing course that provides the insight on the basics of the PM. The best part is at the beginning being a part time student it was hard to focus, or extract the most from the videos and written material. However, the design of the course, gradually make the mind understanding the course contents more easily in lesser time.
I am excited to move on to the next course.
Thanks Google and Coursera for the amazing journey of learning.

This introductory course is a great opportunity to dive into Project Management without too many details and see if you really want to continue your journey as a project manager. Highly recommend it to everyone who wants to know how it's called what you are doing every time at home while organising birthday parties or planning a move to a new accommodation ;) Loved this course very much and will truly recommend it to my closest friend.

I loved how I could study at my own pace - which is faster than I expected due to the course organization. It's fun to learn this way - videos, small quizzes, and practice problems. Definitely way better than the traditional way of education - here is a thick boring book, some very far-out lectures, then a really big test.
The instructors are friendly, excited, and knowledgeable. It's very relatable and they give tons of good examples.

This course was a great way to jumpstart anyones career. I do feel like it would have been nice to develop some more functionality into the discussion portion of the class. Perhaps a bot that prompted you with questions based on keywords in your responses.
I plan on continuing on to finish the course and then to the SEO and possibly one from FB on social media. From Coursera's standpoint there is an awesome diversity of content here.

I was a bit nervous heading into the first Course of this Certificate, but it was simply laid out and easy to follow. The videos clearly explained the content in a very friendly manner and the presenter, Emilio made you feel like he was your friend. The quizzes and tests were challenging, but if you learned what was taught and knew your content you were well equipped. Thank you Coursera for making this less scary than I expected!

This was a great introduction to Project Management. I'm totally new to this field and this overview really helped me decide if I wanted to move forward in exploring this career. The videos are informative and the activities are helpful (especially looking at job descriptions on Indeed, etc.). I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is wondering if Project Management is for them. It's a very inexpensive way to find out!

This was a great foundational course in project management. As someone who has practiced project management but hasn't taken formal study until now, I consider this to be a great foundational course for having to better hone in and understanding the key concepts and workflows that define project management, both in terms of individual project management and working within an organization. I'm looking forward to the other courses.

Hands down one of the best courses I have taken online. A mix of video, reading and learning your knowledge through quizzes. The videos are on point, clear and easy to comprehend.
The structure of the course is well done. Moreover, stories of current project/program/portfolio managers are inspiring in its own way. This is the first time I have seen that the course is emphasizing on transferable skills, which I really believed in.

This course is so simple to follow along with! I've learned quite a ton about Project Management and how anyone, and I mean ANYONE, can become a Project Management. I typically have difficulty staying focused on a task/subject matter. However, this program kept me accountable, and I was able to earn my certificate from course 1. I loved the lessons so much that I will complete all six and become proficient in Project Management.

I am so thankful and grateful that google has made such a beautiful platform to learn project management. I am learning and by time I will gain some massing results after completion of all six courses.
Very simple language used and very crucial and important topic discussed. As a beginner in this field I learnt a lot in through this course and will sharpen my skills by regularly revising and practicing the tests as well as tasks.
