    edX
    edx is really helpful for learning and growing your skills in both personal and professional aspects. It helped us learn all the business concepts which were required for our company. We chose certification after auditing a number of courses. It was definitely a terrific tool for professionals who were self-learning.

    I found GoSkill's project management course to be beneficial, well-paced and relatively inexpensive. After taking a course myself, I realized my team would benefit too, so we tried out the GoSkills LMS. It’s simple to use and I can easily see how well someone is doing in a course, and slot new employees into training as needed.You need not look anywhere else - everything you need is provided in full detail.

    It is an excellent tool for remote setup team. The universities are well respected, and the course depth adds a lot of value. The upskilling has become convenient. Progress can be tracked easily, and it offers customized corporate training needs fulfilled. The compliance training courses are helpful in particular as they meet growing demand.

    edX
    edX for Business seemed to be quite similiar to other competitors in terms of methodology and formats. In our case, courses themes availability were very important, because the challenge was to find relevant content to support pre-defined learning tracks. We found most of them on edX for Business catalog. The posibility to integrate them into other platforms was also an important decision factor.

    I needed to take a project management course and didn't know where to start. I did a bunch of Googling and decided on GoSkills because it was a quick class. I was really happy I started with the GoSkills Project Management class because it was a great introduction to to the industry. Based on the knowledge I got from GoSkills I was able to decide to pursue more Project Management education. I started on trying to decide which online education platform to go with. It was between Google/Coursera, Udemy, GoSkills and maybe a bootcamp. I went with GoSkills because it was short and I could get an idea of what I was going to learn in a longer course. I'm really happy with the path I took and would recommend it to anyone looking to learn about project management
