It was honestly very challenging for me , I guess I will have to really brush up & rebrush up my concepts before going for my CPA Exam paper this year.But very disappointed with the no professor guidance or proper coursera learner support this time for this course. Could've completed it much sooner.
The lectures are boring and monotonous.
Great course and great professor. I learned exactly what I hoped to learn and more. The professor is very clear in explaining and provides easy to follow examples that drive home the concepts.
It is very interesting course where after each lesson there are tasks which really check the received skills. I have taken great pleasure from a course. Thanks!
I didn't get my certificate

Could have more pratical insigths from top managers (eg).
A very boring and dull course. Plus the professor Gary Hetch is the worst. He is reading everything from a paper. You can see that EVERY SINGLE WORD he is saying is being read by something he placed beside the camera. He doesn't seem to have much knowledge because when he does say something by himself, he stumbles. It was a drag from the beginning. And he speaks at such a low volume that even at full volume, you have a hard time listening to him. Plus the subtitles and the transcripts are so badly calibrated that what's being said doesn't/t match the subtitles. Probably the worst course on Coursera.
Курс по управленческому учету оказался очень полезным и информативным для тех, кто хочет глубже понять, как можно использовать данные учета для принятия эффективных бизнес-решений. Он охватывает ключевые темы, такие как составление и анализ бюджетов, методы оценки инвестиционных проектов, а также подходы к планированию и контролю финансовых ресурсов. Одним из самых сильных аспектов курса является внимание к практическому применению теории. Примеры из реальной практики и задачи, направленные на решение конкретных проблем в управленческом учете, позволяют понять, как эти методы можно использовать на практике. Особенно полезными были разделы, посвященные анализу отклонений (вариаций) и их влиянию на принятие решений в бизнесе. Курс помогает не только освоить теоретические аспекты, но и развить навыки, которые можно сразу применять в реальной рабочей среде. Он подходит как для новичков, так и для тех, кто уже работает в области финансов и хочет расширить свои знания. Материал курса изложен доступно, с понятными примерами и множеством полезных инструментов. Важно отметить, что курс также рассматривает важность учета в условиях изменчивости внешней среды и использования различных методов оценки эффективности бизнеса. Для тех, кто стремится развить навыки управленческого учета и научиться принимать обоснованные и стратегически важные решения, данный курс станет отличной отправной точкой.
While the quizzes are the measure of understanding and applying concepts, I think it would be beneficial to provide an optional test based on course material. The current system scores based on weekly assignments, however if you provide an optional test for people who want to increase their skill set; I think this would be extremely helpful in a full circle concept development. Optional end test or a multiplier application to current course grade could be used here, however I enjoyed the opportunity to refresh my knowledge base. Thank you.
