I had a great time with the 5 Decision Making Techniques for Success course. Sorin is an excellent instructor and his training techniques are impressive! I highly recommend this class if you're looking to increase your skills in decision making, because it will make all aspects of life more manageable when dealing with issues or problems that arise day-to-day

The best decision-making techniques I've ever encountered! Sorin Dumitrascu is an excellent instructor who takes you through this course with a lot of enthusiasm. Through his own personal stories he builds trust between you and the material. Taking this course on a personal level, I have learned some things that stick with me after finishing it which is precisely what makes it so motivating and enjoyable to follow!

Sorin, I have seen a few comments around the same issue that I found with this course. Whilst the material is good, it is absolutely dreadful to listen to. The elevator music in the background and the extremely monotone straight reading of lecture content makes it near impossible to stay focused. It lacks any form of engagement and could benefit greatly from some form of interactive update. In an earlier comment you have made in response to similar feedback you state that this is only a short course, how about lengthening the course a little and breaking it up into slightly smaller and more describing segments. You might just find that the feedback improves and more people choose to purchase more of your courses.

Someone with good English reading and writing skills should look over the quiz. I'm pretty sure you don't want to *confront* group bias. I don't believe comforting it is an option in the real world. Also in quiz question #1 unless someone has developed a reliable way to see into the future you can never know all the consequences of any action. At best you can make some educated guesses.

The course is excellent, the trainer has presented different decision making techniques which can also be helpful in daily activities to complete the respective task effectively.

Firstly Thanks Udemy!! Thanks Sorin for teaching with so ease. Secondly I'm not from business background and trying to get into it so started learning decision making and I could easily learn all the concepts with this training. I would recommend people who are trying to take up this course.

Wonderful course! I'm actually amazed how much was covered in so much detail during this course! Short videos, well-explained and easy to follow, with practice exercises. Especially the longer session which enters into the detail of what exactly and how it should be done. Just awesome! Will be taking more and more courses from you, for sure! THANK YOU! :)

A very worth your time course to take. It contains quizzes and activities to help solidify the processes being taught. It doesn't just look at how to solve problems. Students are provided with the background to what is involved in decision making, the physical, mental and emotional inputs that must be considered too. The course is set at a good pace and the instructor is knowledgeable with the topics being taught. It is because it is simplified in such a way that one can understand every bit of the lecture
By Leoni Fabrizio on 9/4/2016
This is a must-watch course. It's good both for beginners and professionals who are looking to advance in their careers or start a new business. This program gave me a clear path to follow if I want to build a solid image and promote my skills and achievements to the outside world.

The content is informative and explained in a slow and probably concise manner. The creator might want to consider ditching the annoying background music, it makes it harder to hear what the speaker is trying to say. The speaker could add in transcripts in the description section to help audiences understand or grasp the accent better.
