Its great overall and gives us a chance to earn PDU points. But it does not have Agile or scrum.

more details about contracts with an example for the drone case or electric car would be very helpful, just to have a wider idea of how to truly evaluate and utilize such documents.

also a brief introduction to agile practices would have been great since pmbok 6th ed. comes with it.

This could of been added to the previous courses, but overall very good and informative. I hope to use everything I learned here and hope to become a better project manager.
