Though the informational part is pretty packed, I doubt that the knowledge is given in an effective way. The same outcome could have been achieved by just sharing the excerpts from the book referenced by the instructor. The final project covers the topic that is not central to the course - there are plenty of courses focusing on project management whereas a business analysis (not analytics) course is a rare find, and it would have been more useful to have a final project covering either requirements engineering or diagrams creation (not as an addition, but as a primary task). Also, it would be good, if the course creators came up with their own business case so that students had a concrete business example to work on. This could also standardize the requirements to the task. Also, there is an indirect indication of the low prep level of the final task: while peer-reviewing, I didn't receive a single submission that would actually attempt to perform the task - all 6 that I've attempted to review were either empty files or contained a request to "help" to pass this course... It's painful to leave such a negative review given the immense work that was put into the preparation of the videos. Kudos for that.

This is a great course, and Prof. Ken Reily is fantastic! He is very engaging, funny, keeps your attention focused, and shares plenty of examples throughout the course to help you grasp and immediately visualize the application of concepts. What I loved most is how he shared the textbook on which the course is based, but added his own inputs, experience, knowledge to complement the textbook information, which gave me a lot of confidence to learn from him. The recommended textbook is also superb, I studied the lectures and textbook side-by-side and found it very helpful!
