I recently completed the Project Planning: Putting it all together course certification offered by Google on Coursera, and I must say that I am quite impressed with the overall quality of the course. The course is well-structured and covers all the key concepts of project planning, such as identifying project goals, developing project plans, and executing those plans effectively.

The course is delivered through a series of videos, readings, and quizzes, which are all very informative and easy to understand. The videos are of high quality and the instructors are very knowledgeable and engaging. The course also includes a number of hands-on exercises, which are designed to help you apply the concepts learned in the course to real-world scenarios.One of the things I appreciated most about the course was the emphasis on practicality.

The course does an excellent job of providing you with the tools and techniques you need to plan and execute projects effectively, regardless of the industry you work in. The course also emphasizes the importance of teamwork and communication, which are critical skills for any project manager.

Overall, I highly recommend the Project Planning: Putting it all together course certification offered by Google on Coursera.

Maybe this is not a problem of the course itself, but the technologies available today: to explain the reason why I put 4 stars and not 5, I make an example. We were teached, and I agree, that information should be distributed and exchanged very carefully, each actor should receive and manage only information relevant to him, but then the tools presented or mentioned to manage communication and store documentation do not allow natively this need, so e.g. if I need to have a documentation repository on the cloud with 6 types of access, it is virtually impossible for me to manage this natively, I will probably need to have 6 different google drive accesses (and this could be difficult to manage, as currently on each pc only 4 google drive users can be activated, so the project manager really could have many technical difficulties in managing all the repositories. Other similar situations exist, due to limitations of technologies, e.g. in ASANA the process of monitoring work progress with objective indicators is manual and so not so easy to perform.
