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....

This module has good content but it is not well organized. There is too much jumping around between topics making consolidation of information necessary.

Really AB level. A lot of repetition of concepts. Would have been cool if the instructor would have brought more real life cases from google.

This one took way longer than the others. I wonder if it could be condensed a bit more. It is way longer than all the others.

Was unnecessarily long with too much story telling included instead of getting to and discussing the main points.

This part of the course was very disappointing to me. It was boring, I feel I learned nothing, it actually made me confused by the whole concept and everything I've learned here so far.

I really missed the readings after the videos: In the previous courses there was a reading after every single video, so I could just watch and listen to the videos, then take notes using the readings. In this course I had to continuously stop the video, rewind, and take notes, it was very frustrating.

I am more surprised by the lack of readings because this course even mentions that there are three kinds of people when it comes to learning something, somebody learns after hearing, some after reading, some by practicing, and I liked the previous courses because they offered 3 of them with redundancy. So after I heard, read, and practiced the same thing I felt I understood and learned it. Now I feel I'll forget all of these I heard here. I've taken notes but still, I feel disappointed and a waste of time and money after this course.

The previous courses were pretty awesome, especially the first 2.

I still think the language of the quiz questions is too difficult for non-native speakers.

The presenter is enthusiastic and energetic, and there was good information. But the extreme infuxuation in her voice went from what sounded like shouting to inaudible whispers. I noticed it most in the first 3 weeks of this course. The first word would be really really loud and certain points she would make would be similarly loud, and the end of the sentence would trail off to low inaudible volumes. This was a difficult listening experience because in order to hear the quiet parts of the voice, I had to turn the volume loud enough that the louder parts of the speech pattern were a shock to my system. I listen to the videos on my communite, so visually following the transcript is not an option. This was the case for all the speakers in the first three weeks, and not so much the latter 3. It was distracting from the material, and made concentration nearly impossible. Thank you for considering this issue.

This course is way too long and convoluted. So much of this course is repeated over and over again, but then crucial information you need for quizzes is mentioned in passing in a video and good luck finding it afterwards. For someone who studies methodically and likes to take noted this video-full course was hard to get through.
