A lot of the content is outdated. Most of the links mentioned in the recommended readings lead to 404 pages that no longer exist. The last assignment however was very beneficial. Still a good course for novice marketers

The content is sufficient, especially the sharing from guests in the market. However, the delivery media and visual aids can be more interesting.

It was a good course but I was hoping it would go into more detail. It scratches the surface.

The written/supplemental materials are surface level and often extremely dated (e.g., a 14 year old Forbes article on the most valuable brands in sports). The lectures are fine, but the interviews are mostly irrelevant and filled with cliches ("Have a high EQ!" "Be curious!" "Learn math!"). After 3 full modules, I'm calling it quits.

Overall okay but some of the interviews didn't seem relevant, they felt a little bit like padding. I also had the same individual grade my two assignments and he graded my work quite subjectively and not in line with the stated objectives.
