Great course, could have benefitted from deeper dives and questions on the lessons and less articles to read and review but still great course and great teacher.
Very interesting and it helps me in my further career, very good video lectures and others reading materials. Many thanks for coursera and my company
Me gusto todas las nuevas técnicas sobre registro de proveedores y las tendencias en el mundo para el proceso de selección y evaluación de proveedores.
An outstanding course regarding sourcing and procurement. I suggest procurement strategies should also be included in this course like type of contracts, Letter of Credits etc..
