It's really useful to get the background knowledge of the subparts of the organizational skills. The language is pretty easy so it's not a problem to understand the concept. I also liked visual tools introduced in the course.
I would recommend it to everyone, who wants to get useful tips and become more organised.

The course was very simple and clear to understand, especially for a beginner. Worth value of money to spend on this course where I could get more knowledge about Project Management and I could do this course at anytime and anywhere online. Lastly, I am very satisfied with the customer service with their swift assistances whenever I had issues through out the course.
