      I'm at the beginning of the Google PM course. It feels a little long and overwhelming to do a six course training program. I am considering doing a shorter course geared towards exam prep on Udemy. What were some of the benefits of the Google course in your experience? I know they have resume and career support after you complete the course. Was it worthwhile to join their community?

      @@rawdaaljawhary4174 the overall course experience was easy, and the way they taught the material was easy to understand. i also like being able to apply for their ''student aid'' program. Over the span of the 6 courses i practically only paid $30 , important to note that if you apply for the student aid , u can still work on your course ,you just wont be able to take the exams but , i would still pretend take them and write down my answers with the material fresh in my mind and when i would get my application approved i would be good to go. hope this helps. good luck!

      You’re very welcome! I’m glad you found this helpful. If you are looking to prepare for the test, I strongly suggest to use the Exam Reference list. It literally covers everything on the exam. I wish you the absolute best of luck!

    • @UCanCallMeLou
      @UCanCallMeLou  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank you! I would say the PMI guide to Business Analysis is a must read. There were more Business Analysis questions than I expected on the exam. You don’t have to read the entire book, just the areas suggested in the exam content outline.

    How can I describe this, After passing the exam. You have the experience and confidence ect.. Did you go through "writers block"? Meaning after landing the Job and within the environment did you feel lost? Was it challenging to put into practice right away. I hope my question makes sense. Thank You in advance.

    • @UCanCallMeLou
      @UCanCallMeLou  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s a good question. I think it’s easy to get overwhelmed when we start anything new. Every organization you’ll work for is different and will have different ways of managing projects. Just take it step by step and confidence builds in time. And, hey, you’ll always have the books and all these resources here on TH-cam to guide you along the way :)
      I hope this helps!

      @UCanCallMeLou  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hey there! I dont think you have to read the other books cover to cover. Reading the specific areas pointed out in the exam reference list is more than enough. The PMBOK is most important to read thoroughly. The others are supplements to PMBOK.
