Meilleurs avis pour ELECTRIC INDUSTRY OPERATIONS AND MARKETS
Content was easy to follow and digest - it was a good refresher course for me as I've been in the industry for some time, but within the IT discipline. Learned some new things along the way too.
Great course with a superb faculty. Learnt a lot about the industry and market regulations of electricity. Would really recommend this course to all who are interested in electric industry.
Understanding the concepts of Electricity Market in its relevance and complexity made me realize how it is even more important that electricity will be delivered even to farthest hinterlands.
The topics of the course are well presented and organized properly. The lecture videos and discussions are clear and easy to understand. The assessment tools are appropriate for the course.
