A good basic introduction to the principles of time management in the professional workplace. However, a bit light in terms of depth, and not overly challenging.

The best of all is Mike Sanders Videos on multitasking in week 4 otherwise, its all general knowledge PLANNING your day at work. A bit slow paced course for me.

Useful, but in a general sort of way. The instructor was well spoken and deliberate, but the content comes across as more "common-sense" material than anything.

It's informative but the test is too constrictive. I hope you can adjust the setting to take it at least 2 times in every 8 hours and not just once. Thank you!

Course is good and to the point. Could've been more comprehensive with more chart/graphs and real-life complicated situations. Other then that, great course!

Interesting to see such topic organized within a course structure. Found some of the concepts shown obvious to me. In the end, I think it is a fair course.

Very good, common and not so common sense approaches to managing time which requires some introspection and understanding of the self to properly execute

Nice advices that could be crucial for some persons. The course is still a bit short making it frustrating because 50% of what was taught I already knew.

I liked the content and the way it was presented. However it was a shame that I was not able to get feedback on my test since I took the free course
