I use GoSkills to expand my knowledge. I took an online course and felt it was a good basic class. It was just the high level basics but it was presented very well and I felt like the creator put a fair amount of effort into the class. I am happy I took it and will possibly take more classes in the future.
  • The presentation of the material
  • The tests after the course was good but not too hard
  • Follow up after the class was not overwhelming.
  • The course was a little to easy and basic
  • I felt like I was lead to the answers on the test
  • I felt like the class was taught to pass the test
GoSkills was perfect for me to get an idea if I liked this subject. I really liked the class so I went ahead and took a much more in depth course following the completion of the GoSkills online course I took. I would recommend it for anyone needing a broad understanding of a subject without having to spend weeks or months in an in depth course. I would have liked to see GoSkills offer a more indepth class for me to take. I had to go sign up with another online education platform.
  • I really liked the graphics and the way they conveyed the course
  • I liked the way the content was presented
  • Getting a printable certificate at the end was nice.

  • I was able to see that I liked a subject
  • It made me realize I wanted to go down the path of a much more in depth course
  • I learned I can still learn even at my age
  • Just having another certification to post on LinkedIn and maybe a resume is really nice.
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.

  • 5-minute modules
  • Access to all course per subscription
  • Simplicity of the course contents
  • The non-availability of the mobile application
  • Sometimes the on-screen characters are too small to see
  • Occasional typos that make things look unprofessional
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.
