About the Course

Have you ever wondered how goods get delivered to us so quickly as soon as we order them? One word: Logistics! In this introductory Supply Chain Logistics course, I will take you on a journey to this fascinating backbone of global trade. We cover the three major building blocks of logistics networks: transportation, warehousing, and inventory. After completing this course, you will be able to differentiate the advantages and disadvantages of different modes of transportation.

Finally, you will be able to select the options that enable you to develop logistics networks, that minimize costs and deliver top customer service. This is an introductory course designed to provide you with a start on your learning journey in logistics. You do not need to have any background in logistics, but it would be beneficial if you had a basic understanding of business concepts. Join me and we will learn together about logistics!

Adequately detailed and informative educational videos. With sufficient links to external resources, study materials & reference information. The tests and exams helped reinforce the study material.

I'm writing this review before I've finished the course, and I won't finish the course until some major changes are made. The biggest one, is how the course handles its quizzes. When reviewing, it hides the answers you've selected and doesn't provide any hints where I might be able to restudy, like many courses on Coursera do. How can I know what I got wrong on a multiple choice question if all I'm told is "incorrect"? We're talking supply chain here, a universal systems--at least in the US--it's not like anyone is going to steal important information from this course.

If you are new to SCM, then this course can render useful information. If you from the industry, then use this course to validate your experience. The most valuable skill I learned was creating a custom map using Google Maps. Also of note, it's painfully obvious that Rudolf Leuschner, Ph.D., the course instructor, has zero industry experience.

Overall i think it's fine. Good for beginners who have no background to understands concepts. Some links and materials are already outdated and not able to be found. Lectures are nice but I am quite annoyed sometimes by the video editing - sound effects cover the professor's voice.

Good overview of logistics. I would have given four stars except the exercise/project instructions need to be updated to align with Coursera capabilities. It was frustrating to create materials as instructed and then find out they could not be uploaded in their native formats.

While the information was good, it did not flow as some of the Cybersecurity courses that I had. The questions would pop up prior to the information being shared. Overall it was fine, but I was expecting someone of the same format that I was use to.

El curso son conocimientos muy básicos. Y un problema es que para que te califiquen los assesments otros compañeros tienes que buscarte la vida e ir mendigando en los foros `para que alguien te los revise.

The information was very basic. It provided a good introduction, but could have been much more informative. Also, many of the links are now broken or out of date. This needs to be reviewed and updated.

I think the contents and assignments of the course were good, nevertheless the interaction with teachers and other fellow students could be improve and enhance the learning experience.

Good job in constructing this course, but I have one comment, try not to limit the exercises to just inside the US, because you have students from various countries, and professions.

The logistics program was so insightful and I learned a lot about the scale of the supply chain and how come the lositciscs can be transformed into a profitable business.

I think the course is more suitable for people from America. At least let us submit the assignments based on the logistic network present in our home countries.

I think that the course was very informative but I had difficulties finding my way around on the screen to actually know where to start things and what to do.

Good for broad-level understanding. Would have liked more details and case studies. Also actual video of a parcel from the start to the finish would be great.

Very basic approach of the concepts. Course should probably approach more deeply showing more real life examples. Overall it was quite interesting.

It gives some good birds eye view of the topic, but I wish the course had more in-depth discussion of topics and more technical material.
