Visual Communications

by Dawn H. on April 15, 2018

Great course! I learned a lot.

Introduction to Statistics

by Alice D. on April 13, 2018

As someone who is not strong in math I was able to pass with a 90. If I can do it you can too!

Developing Effective Teams

by Chris B. on April 13, 2018

This course format was new to me. I learned quite a bit. I liked that the whole course was based in examples. I really learned that way much more quickly than what courses usually do -use the content as the framework and only use examples to illustrate the content. I am an educator and it has given me good food for thought about how to approach my course design. I also learned a lot or relearned about how to effectively lead teams. I recommend this course.

Introduction to Statistics

by Dawn B. on April 12, 2018

The videos were excellent, and, thanks to you, I've made progress in understanding Statistics. The user interface is also excellent. The office team is excellent, and the team worked with me as to time extensions required, as much was going on in my life during this course. I truly wish that you had a Health course, as the rival company's service is so poor.

Human Biology

by Brendan T. on April 11, 2018

Great course, perfect for fulfilling prerequisites.

Developing Effective Teams

by Daniel S. on April 10, 2018

enjoyed it!

Introduction to Information Technology

by Abigail L. on April 10, 2018

This class was kind of enjoyable. I didn't know I would like it but I sure did.

Developing Effective Teams

by Virginia S. on April 10, 2018

THIS WAS GREAT AND I WILL REFER YOU TO OTHERS.
