About the Course

In Course 4 of the Google Project Management Certificate program, you will delve into the execution and closing phases of the project life cycle. You will learn what aspects of a project to track and how to track them. You will also learn how to effectively manage and communicate changes, dependencies, and risks. As you explore quality management, you will learn how to measure customer satisfaction and implement continuous improvement and process improvement techniques. Next, you will examine how to prioritize data, how to use data to inform your decision-making, and how to effectively present that data. Then, you will strengthen your leadership skills as you study the stages of team development and how to manage team dynamics. After that, you will discover tools that provide effective project team communication, how to organize and facilitate meetings, and how to effectively communicate project status updates. Finally, you will examine the steps of the project closing process and how to create and share project closing documentation. Current Google project managers will continue to instruct you in how to accomplish all of these tasks, describing the right tools and resources for the job at hand. Learners who complete this program should be equipped to apply for introductory-level jobs as project managers. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Identify what aspects of a project to track and compare different tracking methods. - Discuss how to effectively manage and communicate changes, dependencies, and risks. - Explain the key quality management concepts of quality standards, quality planning, quality assurance, and quality control. - Describe how to create continuous improvement and process improvement and how to measure customer satisfaction. - Explain the purpose of a retrospective and describe how to conduct one. - Demonstrate how to prioritize and analyze data and how to communicate a project’s data-informed story. - Identify tools that provide effective project team communication and explore best practices for communicating project status updates. - Describe the steps of the closing process for stakeholders, the project team, and project managers....

Disappointed by this course instuctor, in all the videos unlike other instructor she is moving too much on the screen and throwing her hands all over again and again, it was so disturbing I can't focus at all throughout the course. I know Google and Coursera can do better than this. This is the worst course (course number 4) till date which I have completed out of 7 courses Google project management. I had so much hard time throughout my learning and completion of this course. Hope you do better in the future course, please remove this instuctor from future courses that you will make, it will help alot. Last point her voice and accent was hard to understand hope you will work on it. So my future fellow learner can understand and learn better. Thank you

The content was fine. I completed all 6 courses of the 6-course series over several months, with averages well into the mid 90s or better. At the very last segment where I should have received a full completion certificate, I was redirected back to the fifth course and my progress from the past few months was erased. I have copies of my course tests, quizzes, and activities to show that I completed both courses 5 and 6. I should get credit for them.

Too much theory that will be easily forgotten. The important concepts have not been worked correctly in the practical exercises. Outdated and unhelpful teaching method. Very disappointing.

They don't give you the professional certification promised when you complete the courses. Don't bother. These courses will do nothing to advance your career or education.
