What people are saying

        There is so much in this course and I'm still blown away and processing the experience - but it's really good you should sign up for it. I've taken so many online courses on Program Management, and none of them holds a candle to Jean's. Previously, every course I took I left saying "I already knew that. Why did I waste my time with that."

        Jean was a very thoughtful instructor and made sure to listen to everyone in her cohort. She constantly made sure everyone was heard and that she addressed every single question. Her content was well made and easy to digest. Having a workbook and real life examples of what a program manager does was very helpful for a visual learner like myself.
