Bonjour Madame/Monsieur, Ce cours est très capital pour moi puisque j'ai appris beaucoup des nouveaux aspects de la RSE tels que : Le well-being, les détails de la bonne gouvernance, les bénéfices de la RSE et les différents types de la RSE. Cette formation a relevé ma compréhension de la RSE.

The teacher's accent is way too thick. At least the manuscript could have been in proper English. Disappointing to pay for a course and not be able to understand everything being said!

Besides basic knowledge, I hope to gain insights into trends and future directions of corporate social responsibility activities.

the course can be more comprehensive based on how to measure the impact of CSR, Case studies of companies and present market trends and requirements for a professional

Thank you for putting this master course online. It has broadened what I already knew about CSR and related concepts.
By Rajashekar N on 5/16/2023
I was expecting some more informations with an examples, so it would be easily understandble, but the information provided in this course are ok, but still expecting some more informations, thanks

Straight to the point and a good introduction to CSR. However, the title of the course should be changed. The "master" should be taken away from the course as it denotes the course to be an in-depth dive into CSR which isn't the case here
By Immanuel Toysim on 1/3/2023
Pretty basic stuffs. Nothing you cannot google but there was effort to putting it into a decent presentation. Good job overall.
