It was very informative and practical. I got to know many new things, such as correct formatting, the difference between Memos and Emails, and many more...
Thank you so much.

April 2021. I appreciate the structure & awareness in writing different types of communication. I would have graded it higher if was up to date, they had spell checked the course even used proper Uppercase sentence structure in their bullets (to name a few). This course is outdated; some info being 10+ years old. In the end, it was weeks three and four assignments that were not well explained. One of those weeks you do your own review of a lesson so that you gain better use and knowledge of the Rubric. The other, you write your own version of the lesson. Both require Peer reviews. It was not clear what was needed, both weeks seemed like a copy of each other. I turned to the forums for clarity where others mentioned the same thing. As I progressed, I found many people had incomplete or did not complete the assignments. Some put their correct answers in the wrong week’s assignment. Because it’s “Peer” based, it takes a long time for others to review final assignments. I found some had waited over a year, most were several weeks. Again, it’s confusing what a person is to do. In week three, I had to resubmit my assignment twice because the Peers responses created a tie. While structured correctly, Peers either didn’t understand the assignment or the Rubric. In the end, I simplified the “email” assignment, finally two Peers each gave me 100% and both replied with “good” in the comments. To put it plainly, this course needs a complete overhaul. PS: I am unable to break this review down into paragraphs, another example of outdate technology.

This was hard to follow since it seemed they talked alot faster than I could process the information they were telling me, so am having trouble with one part of the test and can't seem to get it right to pass that part so can you give me any suggestion's on how to do this and pass. I have the certifaction for the resume and email course and would that help with the course. This needs to be done.

Candidates having very little or no knowledge of writing professional emails or memos are very much encouraged to take this course, however no professional or advanced techniques are taught in this course, hence people who are in habit of sending and receiving emails on daily basis learn no new skills by opting for this course.

Well it is Project-Centered as it says. I have one problem that here lot of other links to website is given to get more knowledge on the subject, which should be taught by the instructors. They should make small videos for each thing they say. By giving some blog link does't really help all. But great learning. Thank you

Having peers grade you, and them not taking it seriously was annoying. They also didn't leave any constructive feedback, so I just re-uploaded by final email and now I got a 10/10. Otherwise, the structure was good and I learned some new things.

If there are different peer assignments in each module then it can be better

Poor content
By Emily G

I wanted SO BADLY to give this course 5 stars, because I found the content very, very helpful and informative, but there were also so many problems. All of the assignments are graded by other students who may not speak English very well, may not know what they are doing, or simply don't care for whatever reason. This means that for a lot of my assignments that I worked so hard on - and I thought, did well - were graded with a failing score and zero feedback as to why (even though the person is supposed to say why). I understand that there are too many assignments for just these two professors to grade, but I really wish something with this system could change. I also waited about a month to receive my last grade and therefore certificate after I completed all of the content of the course because I was waiting for someone to grade me and give me actual feedback. It was just very disappointing, but I am still thankful for the content.

This course is extremely basic. Its planning is best summed up: “Just show them a memo, have the participants write one, and boom, success!” That one small, peer-evaluated exercise is not worth the fee.

This course is generally pretty basic. While it does provide useful information & a few good tips, I feel like I can easily find most of them on the internet on my own.
