I thought it was a great intro coming from my Architecture background and looking forward to the other classes. I did think the information was occasionally repetitive but overall it had a great flow.

The Construction Project Management course was very well put together and informative.
There is a lot of information that covers a broad spectrum of Project Management.
How Coursera handles their web site and peer reviews leaves a lot to be desired. Very difficult to maneuver through the class reviews and forums etc.

I thoroughly enjoyed studying for this course. Though the norms and laws referred to those carried out in the United States, the general content is relevant to Construction Project Management in any country. The tutors were clear in their delivery and examples, and the quizzes reinforced what was already taught.

It is so far the most demanding of Coursera courses I have done, but very worthwhile; the breadth of knowledge is immense. Only one or two changes could be made to make it more palatable - one half module is very US-centric, and the last week is very full in coursework, which makes it extremely hard to complete.

Un curso my bueno para entender las bases del Project Management enfocado a la construcción. Es importante tener en cuenta que varios módulos se enfocan en normativa de los Estados Unidos que no se aplica para los demás paÃses, sin embargo existen similitudes por lo que uno puede aprovecharlo bastante.

This course is definitely a wonderful resource for learning, reviewing, and discussing academia. It comes bundled with multiple different resources and a Forum where classmates can ask one another for clarification of points discussed in the video and create study groups to review and learn.

I enjoyed the course. Not only the parts about construction management principles, but the guest speakers had some interesting backgrounds and gave some perspective on tangential topics like lean processes and sustainability in construction, so I got some other areas to study as a bonus.

I studied Economics in Undergrad and I think that was a valuable scope through which to understand this course. I really enjoyed the productivity and efficiency aspects of the course. I learned a lot, yet it wasn't so out of my wheelhouse, that it was overwhelming. It was well balanced.

Thorough course work, yet explanatory enough for one to grasp the many concepts treated.
With the little expertise gathered from course, I must humbly say; It was worth the while.
With so much gained only in the first in the series, I look forward to completing the whole specialization.

This course is quite beneficial to anyone looking to get into construction, project or program management and those already working in any of these areas and looking to sharpen their knowledge and skill set. This was quite an informative course and the material was very well conveyed.

Es una especializacion bastante interesante, tiene muchos componentes de la construccion en USA que pasan por desapercibidos y que estan trending hoy en dia. Lo recomiendo para profesionalizarce en el area y para poder tener un mejor manejo en las responsabilidades de Manejo de obras.

As an introductoury course it's very valuable to get a glimpse all around the CM issues. To deepen knowledges other courses in the same specialization are strickly recommended. It's very recommended a preliminary knowledge about basical issues in Project Management (PMI or similar).
