    Excellent course structure, very clear and concise material, John Budd is teaching in a fun way, which helped me understand the syllabus, with short questions to help me think and not too long videos.

    Solid course, more economics than expected but that is not bad thing! I enjoyed it.

    Peer Review Assignment was a headache, one person failed me for fun, then I had to wait four days to have someone review my assignment again.

    So much more academic and theory based than I expected from an online course. Worth so much more than what I paid for it. Highly recommend it for any one who is given responsibility for HR but hasn't been trained to do it.

    A fun and thorough look into the basics of managing & HR. What I found especially appealing is the more philosophical background of the course - taking into account the history of work, not just current/modern practices.

    I loved the course overall. The way the course was linked to current scenarios and current theory was great. Generally the courses are age old with no recent development in content. But this one was good one.
