This course is perfect for gaining a broad perspective on global energy markets. It also delivers useful tools for analyzing political issues, strategic business decisions, and energy markets.

Very interesting crash course in business development, coupled with energy issues and technologies. Suitable for beginners in business development strategies and concepts.

Good blending of economic, business and technical knowledge relating to energy business.

The course is of 2012, could be better if it was of 2018 or 2019.

Great overview of Global Energy Business. A little bit more emphasis on renewables and their potential would have been nice.

Excellent course to learn about the basics and fundamentals about energy and energy business.

Very braod and enhanced look and description about global energy issues and its branches.

Covered a great deal of ground in a short period of time. Heavy economics.

Fundamentals of Global Energy Business, to learn more about energy

Great course for an introductory knowledge of the energy business!

Great overall view of global energy resources and business.

An eye opener and a very intuitive Course I must say!

I did it twice. One of the best. Very recomendable.

Good intro to the issues within the energy sector.

Very informative course!

Great course!

Good content and GREAT assignments. Main problem is that the lecture videos are unscripted and could easily be made more concise. The other thing that worried me was that most of the assignments that I peer reviewed had missed large parts of the question. I would rather have my work marked by people who have read the question properly.

Not updated, the course talks about events that were taking part 7 years ago and the energy business has changed dramatically these last years.

This is a lengthy course with lot's of unnecessary details.

Pace was slow and I was disappointed by the content level. From the title I thought this would give information about the "global energy business" but the focus is generally on the US, except for portions that discussed location/ use of global resources and demand and supply levels globally. The class begins with analyzing Supply & Demand curves for energy use and production which was interesting to me and I thought meant we'd be taking an economic view throughout. Then the large middle section covers very basic info about the types of energy production (coal, oil, NG, renewables) in the world -- low in factual content considering the time spent on each topic. The final section about political considerations was very basic and only focused on the US. I am amazed that the 3 branches of US government were explained on the simplest level; this is a middle school & high school topic in the US. I expected a more in-depth class with details and analysis about the global energy business. I am glad I did not choose to pay for the certificate.

Interesting course but the assignments are too vague.

Too long, not enough concrete materials, too much focused on US.

not an informative course
