This was a well-rounded experience. I learned a bunch about management from the small things like day-to-day duties at my job to getting a big project done and what that can look like. It is not difficult, but needs time. Plan accordingly.

Loved it! Easy to understand, great videos, great incremental quizzing. The neutral accent of the coaches in the videos helped me understand them and unlike other courses, are not distracting. The repetition of concepts was VERY helpful.

Although this course was very challenging. You have to remind yourself to stay the course. The information is laid out in an easy format. However, it is a lot of information about Agile. So many concepts with Agile you could get lost.

Pretty accurate to Agile IRL. Its very basic, so i wouldnt recommend those who are working in the space already to bother unless they just want the cert, but definitely a good starter. I took it for the overall project management cert
