Great information and well developed course.

This was really exceptional at explaining things immediately useful for me in my non-management job. Knowing what to ask of my PMs is so helpful, take this course if you're on the fence. In fact just take the whole certificate if you can afford it, if you can't you can apply for assistance and they are very generous with giving it out for whatever your reasons are. Best of luck :)

Amazing course. Comprehensive coverage of details and introduction to Stakeholder Analysis, RACI charts, Project Charter and tools. A brief demonstration of some of mentioned tools will add more value in this course.

Although I took this course first before the foundation of project management I found I have known many terms in my real life so eager to start to learn more in-depth qualities of project management.

For every test in the course, it's difficult to find the specific answer for each question. Please provide more specify answer for each question, which could reduce the student to take time to find answer.

I completed my work and never received the peer reviews needed to complete the course. Very frustrating that my completion is based on external participants that are not invested in other classmates.

It was an amazing course to this 6-month certificate. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn the basics on how to be a project manager and also real-life applications of it. It's very complete and easy to understand with many features such as videos and reading to vary a bit and quizzes and assignments to make sure you understand well everything. It also contains extra resources for those of us who like to go a bit further.

The course covers the basics of project initiation. Good course for a cursory overview of the project initiation phase. There also good tips that one can leverage for interviews and job searches.

Great information and tools here in Course 2. Love the layout. Google has done very well with offering both auditory or visual learning. The instructors so far have been pleasant presenters.

The course structure is very convenient, the lecturer is soft spoken which is fantastic. The course content is comprehensive but condensed and laid out in a unintimidating and engaging way.

I gained a lot from this course because instructions are clearly explained by giving specific examples for each and every assignment. I would like to thank the instructor for this course.

JuAnne has been amazing in the videos! Very happy with the course and the level of detail provided! Glad a lot more techincal aspects have been covered!

Very important phase of any project. Presented beautifully. PLEASE DO THE ASSIGNMENTS! I wish there were more case studies, but still a GREAT course!

What to say - the must know in Google what is the meaning of successful project. The course is great with lot of practical knowledge.

Great job, I was really amazed by the way the instructor was performing. keep up

Very good! It provides tools and concepts to start a project in the right way!

Though I like the concepts and information that this course provided, I personally think that some quizzes were irritatingly confusing to learners.

For example, in one quiz, we were asked to choose between "impact" & "influence". I know these terms are different to some extent, they still have some similar aspects (i.e, power). The options for multiple choice quizzes should be improved for learners to better understand concept rather than to trick them, especially when these quizzes are not for grading.

Another example of confusing information is "stakeholders". In a lesson, we learnt that "team members" are "primary stakeholders". However, in a final quiz, we have to choose "only stakeholders", "only team members", "team members & stakeholders", and the correct answer went to "stakeholders & team members", while the concept "stakeholders" already includes "team members".

Hopefully my inputs can help to improve the course as I do like how interactive, practical and useful it is :)

I was so exciting to do the course. I just had difficulty- because I don't have any experience with PM-to understand what exactly the peers assignment is about and how to do it. As I saw more people got confused with the instruction.

Peer assignemnt review is not a good way at all ! We have to wait and literally have to beg for grading ! As we complete the course, we have to have our certificate. Peer reviews is not at all important at least from my point of view.

The training as a whole was good. The instructor didn't keep my attention as well as Foundations of Project Management is my only feedback.

The teacher's accent is kind of annoying

I appreciate the presenter's enthusiasm. She's very sweet and welcoming. I like the congratulations and attempt at motivation. I found some of the content too vague for the verbatim questions in the exams. The problem I kept having was understanding her constant mumbling. She also didn't finish about 20% of her words causing me to have to read the text to follow along. Speakers should enunciate and be clear. By the final week, it was getting disruptive.

I very much enjoyed the direct examples, the hands on learning, and the tools provided, despite not using them at all. I hope we have hands on tutorials with some tools.

I loathed the peer review assignment. Even though I received 100%, I think it's terrible to have peers review each other on a convoluted assignment that is very rough around the edges as is. It's like having a college and no teachers. Students all give each other A's or F's based on their own uncertainty! Woohoo... no.

They should really stick with the honor system. Those who want to change, grow, and learn will do so faithfully, and not waver into cheating, etc. Those who do like to plagiarize, cheat, and skimp will do so regardless. We shouldn't have to stress about being graded by that or have our grade depend on that risk. Banter, discussion, and unscored things are fine for peer review.

I much prefer to attempt an assignment, do my best, and then go to the next section and correct it myself. I did learn some things. After all, we all go to the university of YouTube/Google now days... doesn't matter if it's Harvard or the University of Phoenix, lol. It's all the same and we need to be accountable for our learning ourselves.

I took good notes. I appreciated the effort provided by Google employees. My favorite part was the "accessibility" presenter who was brief but amazing. Hopefully she does a course coming up!

Some part of this course was very helpful and deep in explanation, yet the other part was where I somehow felt that there could have been more to be digged and articulated by Google and learners like myself: For example, classification and clarity on who are (or should be) stakeholders, and who are (or should be) project sponsors/owners and customers. I know that asking stakeholders as many questions as I can during the initiation phase of every project is crucial, but if I meet and ask all the stakeholders including customers, end-users, I can hardly put all their desires into my project charter... A skill of negotiating thru, not with, as many stakeholders as possible is also crucial in reality, I guess. Demonstration and hands-on practices with OKRs, RACI charts, and project charter were great and I enjoyed them. Thanks

The course was top. I learned a lot. it was really well done.

but after finishing two of 6 certificates I have to say that the work needed for each certificate is much MUCH more than what was written in the program.

first of all - this is a GLOBAL course!! not everyone is english native speaker!!!

readings that are expected to take 20 minutes take at least one hour for me. everything that I need to write takes much longer. I have to read things more often, listen to videos more often etc. this takes me a massive amount of time!!

all together each course should be certificated with much more than 20 hours of work and this estimation should be put down in the program. If i have to spend at least 35 hours on a certificate than I need this to be written down and appreciated

It could have been more explicit with specificites. I wasn't rying to get into a new carreer. I was only wanting a well rounded understanding of the field and pick up a few tools that I could benefit from in my current field. The amount fo time I am putting in is not what I meant to sign up for.
