It was a great match for me. I enjoyed the course and learned quite a bit.
It was OK. It was fairly basic, but a good overview.
The content was solid but the presentation could be improved. I would have like to have seen more slides or other visuals and seeing less of Linda (the instructor) talking. You could also consider a split screen for some segments. Having more details on the actual slides, such as more detailed definitions of Vision, Mission, Values, Goals, Objectives, etc. would have been appreciated. Overall a very helpful course from someone who clearly knows what they are talking about.
