Being a web project manager myself i can easily identify and understand the stages mentioned in the course. However if you are selling this course to students with less experience, the content is a little bit shallow and doesnt offer enough confidence to the student. There are no examples and no walkthroughs of any document, tool or gantt chart creation. Also no real life examples or case studies to give the listener any real life use case. Could be better but thanks Phil!

Really just an overview, although the author did state this, I would have liked to have seen examples of creating the Gantt charts, Kanban boards and more specific about communucation points. How often do you touch base with the client, what do meetings with the design and dev team look like etc..

Was a really good course - a little short but still very useful. I'll look out for the other courses in the series.

If you're learning web development you should buy this course. It's only a 1 hour presentation but it includes handouts that you can use to create your design doc, plans, etc. He outlines the entire process of planning and implementing a website for a commercial client. Keep in mind that he uses the traditional waterfall approach and most companies are at least using a hybrid between waterfall and agile. I took project management in college and this course reflects the same information in a college level course but in a short time period.
