Are you kidding me!! This isn't a course. It's a really long advertisement or teaser of the course. I'm so disappointed.

Being in construction business for years, cost estimating was always a problem. Now i am better equipped to make proper (close to accurate) estimation.

I was expecting some SOLVED problems/ case studies on preparing bugget and cost management but it only contains solved MCQs. Also, the course is a little too theoretical.
