What our students have to say about this Microcredential
The Systems Thinking course helped me better understand a subject that I had always been curious about. The emphasis on diagrams to build out the components of system whether it be company, restaurant, garden, college course, etc. in regards to the whole sum will help in my future problem solving. My favorite part of the course was the intro into mental models which I have started to self study a bit. N.D.
