The course was interesting. Many people speaking English with different accents from other countries that were sometimes difficult to understand.

The course was pretty easy, too easy perhaps which made me feel that it wasn't worth 39 euro as I didn't need to try too much.

Pleased that I have this certificate on my Linkedin profile as it looks good

It was an amazing course to understand better about the security and how to manage it . I took it to know better about the coordination between the different security force and the other institutions. And i saw that it is crucial to cooperate starting from the institutions to the countries to ensure a peace and secure environment.

It would be best is native speakers or internationals who are more fluent in English, were selected as presenters.

In some cases, it was difficult to understand what the speaker was saying due to the accent and there were several mistakes in the transcript that made no sense.

Besides that, the content was interesting and up to date.

I would give 4,5 stars but there are no "half stars". The course gives a good overview of the concepts of safety and security, and there are a lot of good speakers. I especially liked the week 7 part of viewing safety through a positive lens.

Provided clear details about the different risks that the world faces. Taking this at the end of 2020, makes this a bit outdated with a new invisible threat which has changed the whole security landscape of the world.

MOOC très intéressant ! Cependant, je ne comprend pas pourquoi nous retrouvons les interviews réalisées chaque semaine, sachant que certaines interviews n'abordent pas le même thème que celui de la semaine en cours.

It provides a holistic view of security and safety challenges faced on a broader level in EU, and their approach to solving those challenges. I'd recommend to all security professionals to take this course.

The course is very good overall, but sometimes it felt repetitive and I wished that they would go deeper into the analysis of concepts.

Interesting with very good topics in the security field. Would be more interactive if the subtitles were embeded in the actual video.

I liked the focus on digitalization and globalization, as an area for security. But the course could have been better organized.
