I am not a fan of the peer graded assignments. I fear that the grading is biased and based solely on the grasp of that learners understanding of the course content.

The material has been great and I really recommend keeping the glossaries handy as you progress, and for later reference in your current role or personal projects!

Instructor was fine, just needed to be a little more lively. I feel like I needed to learn more on how to use excel and powerpoint. Everything else was great!

Lots of similarly named documents which I would have liked to see how they interact more in depth. Or a linear visual for which order they should be set up.

It is an excellent course, but I think it is a little extended and redundant. I learned a lot, and that knowledge will be applied in my current work.

The course is a little on the difficult side, its like a LEVEL UP scenario and hence we need someone more enthusiastic to help us during this time.

There were a lot of information covered on this course, so it's understandable that it felt a bit rushed and additional readings were necessary.

My only complaint is on the peer reviewed assignments. They can be a bit annoying, waiting for people to get around to your assignment.

The lessons on communication look a bit outdated and do not include the new reality, like online meetings and work in a remote mode.
