Mr. Iraci was a wonderful instructor who was easy to follow and went at a good pace. He displays credibility as an authority on the subject matter.

Few more examples and quizzes would make this course even better.

First I want to clarify that I study Risk Management because I thought it would increase my knowledge in the PM career, I'm in the 3rd week of this course, and the Instructor Mr. Joseph Iraci has great knowledge, yet He can't explain the subject well enough, or even stay on the same line of the discussion which leads me to get lost in too many threads on my head (don't know which is which or what belong to where) This course would be great if just someone goes over it and edits it to make it linked and clear enough for beginners to understand and wrap their heads around

First part of the course was really interesting but then things became boring and bad described. Formulas in lessons are not enough to solve problems in quizzes. I expected much more from this course(

Existe un desfase entre el audio y el video y eso genera que no puedas concentrarte en el contenido de cada lección. Además pienso que los temas se presentan de manera muy abrupta.
