About the Course

In this final, capstone course of the Google Project Management Certificate, you will practice applying the project management knowledge and skills you have learned so far. We encourage learners to complete Courses 1-5 before beginning the final course, as they provide the foundation necessary to complete the activities in this course. As you progress through this course, you will “observe” a project manager in a real-world scenario and complete dozens of hands-on activities. You will: - analyze project documents to identify project requirements and evaluate stakeholders - complete a project charter and use it as a tool to align project scope and goals among stakeholders - identify tasks and milestones and document and prioritize them in a project plan - define quality management standards and explore how to effectively share qualitative data - demonstrate your project’s impact through effective reporting By the end of this course, you will have developed a portfolio of project management artifacts that will demonstrate the skills you have learned throughout the entire program, such as your ability to manage stakeholders and teams, organize plans, and communicate project details. These artifacts can exhibit your career readiness when applying for jobs in the field. To further prepare you to interview for project management jobs, you will reflect on past projects, develop an “elevator pitch,” and anticipate common interview questions. Current Google project managers will continue to instruct and provide you with the strategies, tools, and resources to meet your goals. After completing this program, you should be equipped to apply for introductory-level jobs as a project manager. You will also have the opportunity to claim a certification of completion badge that will be recognizable to employers....

This course is fantastic! Though I am a skilled project manager; there are some good takeaways from this course; and Google Instructors talk about the best practices used at Google in a lucid manner!

Would have loved if peers could additionally rate students on the content of their answers if they fully represent or are related to the questions they are answering

Some complicated items for the capstone, i think instructions were a bit confusing. Or maybe i was distracted. Overall a very useful course to refresh the concepts.

I missed the templates of the project plan with "right" answers / information at the end of every section. I still don´t know how good the document was elaborated.

This is a good way to wrap up learning from start to finish. The video content and peer reviews though were a bit cumbersome. Overall, well worth going through it.

I couldn't find many faults with this course, I really enjoyed it. It could have been a bit shorter as the optional stuff was a bit frustrating but it was ok.

The peer review needs to be corrected. Many people are posting other people's work and some don't understand English. They do not properly grade assignments

The exercises were helpful but after 5 long courses in this certificate program, the last one seemed to stretch out a bit with no real purpose.
