This course has helped me a lot to learn how to prepare my company budget. The detailed explanation and formulas are very helpful.

By Nuno Reis on 11/8/2020

A very quick and well thought out way to teach FP&A/Budgeting to those who never did it before or to remind those who know already of the little things that we might not be sure off. It was a very good experience and will be coming back for more.

By Nikita Nimbalkar on 9/3/2020

Really good course. Cam be bit more detailed on concepts.
I think 1.5 hours mentioned in the certificate is not at all needed.

By Christoph Kring on 8/24/2020

Great Coursera! Ist provides a sound introduction in budgetierten.

By Huseyin Ahmet on 8/15/2020

The first section of the course was exceptionally good, I found the second more fast paced and I was unable to keep up. However, it was insightful, thorough and very interesting. The tests at the end are very good and helped to gage my understanding of how I was progressing. As the course is through Udemy, I have unlimited access to and I intend to go over the parts I need to fully comprehend and understand all aspect of a master budget. I would recommend the course 100%.

By Moumita Saha on 5/27/2020

Its good to understand how manual calculation done in excel for forecasting or preparing budget. Overall to get brief idea for preparing budget.

By Pete Murphy on 8/16/2020

OK, let's be honest, it is a 1.5 hour introductory course. If you are really serious in the topic you will need to look into some heavier courses.
However, I made the mistake of starting with a heavy course covering everything in a lot of detail (and got lost). This course is the opposite, I short introductory in simple language covering the basics of all the finance topics. It is great to start here then head back to the more challenging courses later on. At least that's my plan

By Ika Susi on 9/1/2020

This course is good and useful for me, especially in my role as a financial planner. The course content is quite simpel, clear and easy to understand. Looking forward to join another course in 365.

By Tapas Ghatak on 6/14/2020

Yes, of course, it was. very informative and although limited to a very basic level. The explanations were too fast-paced and took me several repeative readings ( which is good ) to comprehend. Overall it met my expectations. Tnx.

By Ernest Kavingo on 9/1/2020

Very interesting and informative. I like the way the lectures are structured the style is simple, yet content very rich.
