Course Feedback

I found this course to be the least valuable of the 10 courses in this learning path. First off, you need access to Microsoft Project to make use of the tips presented. Secondly, you need to be familiar Microsoft Project already in order to make full use of the tips.

Microsoft Project is not free. Microsoft (owners of LinkedIn and LinkedIn Learning) does not offer a free trial. Nor is Microsoft Project part of Office 365. So, in order to access the software in the cloud, you have to sign up for Project Plan 1 at $10 user/month. It would be nice if Microsoft offered a free 30-day trial as part of participating in this learning path.
