About the Course

You made it! Applying Project Management in the Real World is the sixth and final course in the Google Project Management program. In this capstone course, you will practice applying the project management knowledge and skills you have learned so far. If you haven’t taken Courses 1-5 yet, we highly recommend doing so, as they provide the foundation necessary to complete the activities in this course. As you progress through this course, you will “observe” a project manager in a real-world scenario and complete dozens of hands-on activities. By the end of this course, you will have developed a portfolio of project management artifacts that will demonstrate the skills you have learned throughout the entire program, such as the ability to manage stakeholders and teams, organize plans, and communicate project details. These artifacts can exhibit their career readiness when applying for jobs in the field. To further prepare you to interview for project management jobs, you will reflect on past projects, develop an “elevator pitch,” and anticipate common interview questions. By the end of this course, you will be able to do the following: - analyze project documents to identify project requirements and evaluate stakeholders - complete a project charter and use it as a tool to align project scope and goals among stakeholders - identify tasks and milestones and document and prioritize them in a project plan - define quality management standards and explore how to effectively share qualitative data - demonstrate your project’s impact through effective reporting Google employees who currently work in the field will guide you, providing hands-on activities and examples that simulate common project management tasks while showing you some of the best tools and resources used on the job. Learners who complete the six courses in this program will be prepared to apply for entry-level jobs in project management. No previous experience is necessary....

This course is fantastic! Though I am a skilled project manager; there are some good takeaways from this course; and Google Instructors talk about the best practices used at Google in a lucid manner!

Overkill to the already completed coursework. Should be considered optional so the skill sets can be used in a real world job experience instead of coursework. The point of the coursework is to improve skill sets to start a career.

Why all my submitted assignments are missed. I have completed all already and I already get the certificate. Once i come back and check, I found out that the system shows I have not finished my certificate yet.

All good until peer review. Takes too long to get a response and most aren't thorough. They quickly grade without checking to make sure they chose the right points. Resulting in failed peer review assignments.

Very little instruction and every other step is an exercise which makes the user feel more like a guessing game. I think this is the worst of the series of instructions in the entire curriculum.

The Project Management Certificate had too many courses that were dependent on peer review and grading. It was not a go at your own pace course, as described. Especially the Capstone Course.
