Excellent course
Quality learning at your own pace. I love the ability to return to videos, pick back up where I left off, control the speed of the videos and being able to mark lessons with notes or a bookmark to return to later. The lessons were bite-sized, and the humor was always appreciated. The step-by-step processes, explanations for different scenarios, and the breakdown of lessons in general made my notes a lot easier to return to. The workshops were always something I looked forward to as well. The discussion board was nice to go through for troubleshooting. The one critique I'll address is the quiz review. It wasn't until after a couple of quizzes that I realized I can review my answers and that I only had one opportunity to do it before pressing next. Perhaps adding a note of instructions on reviewing quizzes or rewording the buttons on the final page might help for future students. Thank you to Gowtham for reviewing my work and answering my questions!
Great repository of knowledge and video tutorials.
Great workshops and interactive learning.
The fact that we had a sandbox to practice in was super awesome. I would suggest based off the issues someone else in my group was having, to verify all the global things we need to prepare for are there during that lesson. He was confused about the resources and codes etc, that he "had to create". Also, i noticed some definitions in the training are different than real world definitions. Which made some of the quizes difficult.
The pace of delivery was perfect for me. The videos were delivered in way that never left me bewildered.
This training was so helpful in terms of understanding the basics of scheduling through P6 Primavera. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning the software.
Overall, the course provided a solid foundation in P6 and was valuable for learning the fundamentals. However, I experienced some inconsistencies between the workshop files, downloadable materials, and answer sheets. In several cases, the exercises and side-by-side comparisons did not match the expected results, which created confusion and made it difficult to verify my work. It appears that some course materials may not have been fully updated to align with recent Oracle P6 updates. This caused unnecessary stress and frustration during the training. Updating the files and answer keys would significantly improve the learning experience.
Super easy to follow. I learned so much especially with the quizzes and workshops forcing me to apply learning. A lot of cool shortcuts I didn't know as well. Thank you!
Great course. Really enjoyed learning the foundations.
It was a good course just a little while on approvals
Since this course isn’t live, I really appreciate that each new lesson revisits the foundational steps covered earlier. This repetition reinforces the process, making sure we’re actually learning and understanding—not just following instructions.
