This very great course gives me a lot of knowledge in product sourcing, suppliers segmentation and management with better strategies.

Great course for anyone who wants to learn more about Sourcing, and prepare themselves for future work in the Supply Chain sector.

This was an engaging and elucidating course that has greatly influenced my understanding of business practices and operations

The course is very interesting overall. Learners will be able to capture a lot new insights and can apply to daily work life.

Interesting Introduction of Sourcing with a very lively example. Really liked it and it satisfactorily cleared my doubts.

Professor Rudi does an outstanding job with his delivery and course content! I would recommend this course to anyone

The course is ideal for beginners. Our assistant, who led us through this course, explained everything nicely

Course is pretty boring

Several links are broken, needs paid subscription that makes the content poor.

I woudl have preferred more content and video in the course instead of having to click on links and sifting through the literaturs myself. I can simply google it and read all about it. Why bother taking this lesson?

Please take it as constructive criticism and improve the content.

Very basic and no direction. Assignment were self text-based research rather than practical planning or improvement of something.

The peer-graded assignments are not very clear and hence not convnient to complete them

A stronger emphasis on sourcing would be desirable.

Didn't find much to learn in this one.

not very useful

The course is interactive, easy to go and has tons of valuable information to learn about Supply Chain Sourcing: Purchasing, Procurement, Supplier Relationship Management, etc. 100% recommended!

This course added a significant value to my carreer. Sourcing is a key area withing the Supply Chain and this course provided me with introdutory and mid-level knowledge that I particulary found super interesting. It made me to consider to explore the possibilities within the Purchasing area for my future endeavors.

Supply Chain Sourcing is one of a course which gives your mind to do brainstorming about the most suitable sourcing. I had been able to learn the benefits of in sourcing and outsourcing. Perspective and decision making had been improved a lot. All in all a great course to deal with real life problems in sourcing.

The course content and methodology was structured well. The time for learning and doing assignments were adequate. I liked the process of evaluating Peer's assignment which provided a different perspectives for the same theme and help to enhance our thought flow.

Overall a nice experience and effective learning.

Some people argue that e-learning is not an effective way to learn new skills, but I understood it was wrong while I was taking this course. I accumulated lots of knowledge of supply chain management from this course, and I immersed myself in SCM. Special thanks to Professor, Rutgers, and Coursera.

Sourcing course is a gem in its meticulous structure and clear explanations. The course offers a profound understanding of sourcing strategies, vendor management, and procurement, ensuring learners are adept at navigating the intricacies of supply chain sourcing with confidence and expertise.

This course provides a solid foundation for supply chain sourcing. It covers the importance of sourcing, the make or buy decision, supplier selection, and supplier evaluation. It covers the Kraljic Portfolio Matrix which is an extremely important concept in today's sourcing literature.

This was an outstanding course with a lot of great things to learn for novices and experienced professionals alike. I highly recommend working through the entire Supply Chain Management specialization courses. Rudolf Leuschner, Ph.D. is very knowledgable and enjoyable to learn from.

It was really a wonderful course to have basic knowledge in Sourcing and the lecturer was fantastic. I will suggest my friends to take this course too. Also in this moment, I thank Coursera for helping me by providing this platform and financial aid.
