Very enlightening course, with a lot of theoretical foundation and integrated with other tools and frameworks.

I took the course throughout the year and was impressed by how the topics covered were always useful in the projects I was managing, making the learning not only theoretical but also practical with the activities I perform. Therefore, I highly recommend it not only for those starting a career in projects but also for those who are already working and need to review some concepts.
