Before I had trouble understanding the Network Diagram, Critical Path, and Float, but the course instructor explained the concepts slowly and simply showing how to navigate the activities to align and how to calculate the durations to arrive at the critical path and the float time. Exceptional step-by-step explanations!

I now have a fair understanding of the critical path analysis/method. The instructor did explain it so that it can be understood. Great

Very informative, but no review materials were provided with the course. To review what was provided, you will have to watch the course again.

Great Information. Would have been nice to have a blank template to work along with prof. as he explained or some quiz questions. Other than that he was great.
