course ok, basic information suitable for a career or further education. you won't get a certificate though. i guess you may have to verify your ID which i don't like to share with such websites, so if that's what you're after, look elsewhere. otherwise, it's a good course to introduce you to basics of finance

Overall, I thought this course was strong and delivered the content described in the overview. I particularly liked the real life examples the instructor used when discussing financial statements. I do wish the instructor had taken more time to explain the formulas used in Module 4.
