Helpful habits to successfully complete the certificate

As a learner, you’re bringing all of your past experiences and best learning practices to this program. The designers of this course have also put together a list of helpful habits that they believe will help you to be successful: 

  1. Plan your time: Setting regular study times and sticking with them each week can help you make learning a part of your routine. Use a calendar or timetable to create a schedule, and list what you plan to do each day in order to break your work down into achievable goals. Create a quiet place to watch the videos, review the readings, and complete the activities so you can really focus on the material.

  2. Be curious: If you find an idea that gets you excited, act on it! Ask questions, search for more details online, check out the links that interest you, and take notes on your discoveries. The little things you do to support your learning along the way will take your knowledge even further, open more doors in this high-growth field, and help you qualify for jobs. 

  3. Take notes: Notes are useful-to-remember information that you think might be important in the future, especially as you’re preparing to enter a new job field. In addition, taking notes is an effective way to make connections between topics and gain a better understanding of those topics.

  4. Build your career identity: Your career identity is the unique value you bring to the workforce. Watch this video to learn about the key components of career identity and write your own career identity statement. Discovering and defining your own career identity makes you better equipped to choose a career path that aligns with your strengths, values, and goals and is more effective in your chosen profession.

  5. Connect with other learners: If you have a question, chances are, you’re not alone. You can visit Coursera’s private Google Project Management Community to expand your network, discuss career journeys, and share experiences. Check out the quick start guide.

  6. Update your profile: Consider updating your profile on Coursera. This link appears in the menu when you click on your name at the top-right corner of this screen. When classmates find you in the Community, they can click on your name to view your profile and get to know you more.

Finding more information

Throughout this course, you will learn the basics of project management. We will provide a lot of information through videos and readings. But sometimes, you may need to look things up on your own for additional learning. Things change fast in this growing field, so it is critical to do your own research so you can stay up-to-date on what is new. 

Here are some helpful project management resources available online:

  • The Project Management Institute is the leading association for those in project, program, or portfolio management professions. Their website provides guides, industry standards, articles, templates, job boards, certifications, and more to help support professionals in these careers.

  • The Scrum Guide defines Scrum, a technique used in Agile project management. You’ll learn about this framework later in the course. This guide describes Scrum’s roles, events, artifacts, and the rules that bind them together. You can also find hundreds of free resources to learn more about Scrum at Scrum.org Resources.

Digital documents, spreadsheets, and presentations 

You will complete activities using a variety of digital documents, spreadsheets, and presentation templates. These templates align with the document types that project managers often use to create, edit, and collaborate with their team and organization. Digital documents make it easy to collaborate in real-time and stay organized.

If you’re not familiar with these types of tools, check out the course Resources. 

Glossary

This course will cover a lot of terms and concepts, some of which you may already know and some of which will be new. To remind yourself about what a term means, refer to this Glossary.
