CU Boulder Masters on Coursera

[spohara]

My understanding is that some courses will have a proctored exam, but I'm not sure which. The project management pathway does not. The only additional graded material beyond what is in the non-credit Coursera version (the lectures, quizzes, readings) is just a series of assignments where you write practical documentation that you would write for managing projects (charters, scope of work, project schedules, risk assessments, etc), with some very short (1 page) essays along the way.

Course content seems to vary a good deal from course to course - project management was a lot of Forbes or PMI articles. I'm starting the leadership series next, and there are far more scholarly articles in that one and it feels much more 'academic', but the reading is interesting and not overly difficult. I'm not taking it for credit yet, so not sure what the final assessment is like yet.
