Thanks for this course!

I work as a PM in Construction industry, in a small company. We use waterfall method in our day-to-day work. For me was a revelation to find out that there are so much more about the project management.

I'm excited to continue learning contemporary tools and how to use them in daily work. This course is already helped me to stretch the world map inside my head. And, I'm diving deeper!

Thanks Emilio and Google team!

Cheers,

The Foundations of Project Management was an awesome course that was offered by Google. Learned so much about PM and jobs that are available, including the life cycle of the project. Realized very quickly that many of the skills I had used in previous jobs were the same skills used on project management jobs. My time was well spent taking this course. Looking forward to starting the second course Project Initiation: Starting a Successful Project.

The format of the course enables one to understand the project management principles even without prior knowledge.

The input from persons who are already in project/program management makes the course nore practical.

The transcription for the videos is accurate, making accessible to people with hearing problems.

The externl link for further reading are very helpful.

The invideo quizes helps improve the learners concetration.

Its worth the $14 a month fee.

I am impressed by professionalism of google's classes. The presenters/employees were professional and took time to present things in a way that made all the material engaging and thought provoking. The assisgnments were not too easy to the point that anyone could do them in 1 minute, but they weren't too hard in discouraging others from taking them. I highly recommend this course to people who are looking to start their career in project management.

The course is a great start for anyone who wants to have a career in Project Management. They made sure that every lesson was easy to understand and that everyone could easily get a grasp of the material. All examples are based on real-life situations, which makes the course more interesting. Since I enjoyed all the discussions so much, I was able to finish it in two weeks. I'm excited to start the next course to learn more about Project Management.

Interesting course. I loved each and every part of this course. The way the instructor took this course was just awesome. I learned many new concepts of PM from this course. This course gave me the confidence that even I could become the PM in my near future by doing hard work and gaining the right skill set that is needed. I'm looking into completing the rest of the courses in this specialization. Thanks, Google and Coursera for this awsome course.

I have been functioning as a project manager semi-professionally, based off things I've learned from other professionals, in the course of my vfx training, and various internships. I started this course so I could round out my education a bit, and so far, I am finding that the positivity of the presenters and their relatability - keeps bringing me back to the work, to complete the course, no matter what other upheavals I have been working through.

I had a wonderful learning through this course Project Management sounds like it can be a very stressful and demanding job but I also love the idea of using project management in different field. This course was very structured and fairly easy to follow. I love the diverse curriculum and and testimonials of how some people got started as a Project Manager. I would recommend this class to my friends because there is nothing to lose only to gain.

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.

'Foundations of Project Management' course by Google is an outstanding opportunity to gain comprehensive knowledge and skills in project management, organizational behavior, and leadership. Whether you're a seasoned project manager or just starting your career in this field, this course will undoubtedly enrich your understanding and boost your capabilities. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to excel in the world of project management."

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.

The course provided a comprehensive foundation in project management, covering essential topics like the role of a project manager, the project life cycle, and various methodologies. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on team dynamics and how organizational culture can influence project success. Overall, I had a great learning experience that deepened my understanding of project management principles and their real-world applications.

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 was an amazing course trhat gave me a good basic foundation to Projkect Management. It is absolutely fantastic to realise that we all have PM experience just by nature of the day to day tasks we do and I can relate all the skills on to any job I do.

I loved the teaching style and the form to ask questions and discuss major points. Overall I loved it and I higly recommend it. to anyone wanting to gain skills to get the first PM job.

its amazing that google offered these courses at a very affordable price for people to further their education and have more job opportunities! I am so glad I decided to take this course and learn more about project management! at first I felt like this course would be challenging but it is extremely easy to access and work at your own pace. Thank you google! I'm looking forward to course 2 and what my future holds with this certificate.

The foundations of Project Management served as a foundation to my journey with Project Management and it gave me so much clues about the person of a Project Manager which i see myself in all that was explained and also the basics of handling a project, what a project looks like, and all that is involved with handling a project. i enjoyed the course and i am looking forward to implementing all that i have learnt so far in my work place.

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.
