There has never been an available option of downloading the lessons of the Introduction to Project Management in a PowePoint/PDF document.Printing these lessons page by page takes a lot of time and moreover is a terrible waste of paper and trees!!!

I also did the other courses of the specialisation "Introduction to Project Management Principles and Practices".

Enjoy the video lessons a lot :) A complete guide to the project management risks and planning phase.

This was the most fitting course to real practice from the first 3 Project management Principles courses.

helpful course Great course :-) Very useful course that will save you a lot of pain in your project management journey.

This is despite the fact that the course equates "35 PDU's" and "counts towards the UCI Project Management Certificate Programm"; as it was described in the FAQ.

I would highly recommend this course, along with the previous courses in the series, to anyone who wants to learn about project management!

There are also panel interviews of project managers at the end of UCI's project management courses, which provide insight to real-world, practical applications of the concepts discussed in this course.
