This course teaches you the simple principles expert managers use to improve and motivate employee performance. You’ll never have to avoid telling an employee “the truth” again, because the seven techniques we teach will not make employees defensive or afraid. As a manager, or someone who would like to be a manager, you’ll also learn specifically what feedback is, how negative feedback is weighed more heavily than positive, and how positive feedback can super-charge behaviors such as creativity and teamwork. Giving feedback is a skill which develops over time. We give you a process you can use to improve your feedback skills and deliver it with confidence. You will find that there is a scientific basis for many of your observations and intuitions about feedback—such as, it is hard to give correctly, people don’t like it, and more. This will be reassuring as you learn how to overcome these difficulties. We hope you have a fantastic time becoming a better manager!
The way that software components — subroutines, classes, functions, etc. — are arranged, and the interactions between them, is called architecture. In this course you will study the ways these architectures are represented, both in UML and other visual tools. We will introduce the most common architectures, their qualities, and tradeoffs. We will talk about how architectures are evaluated, what makes a good architecture, and an architecture can be improved. We'll also talk about how the architecture touches on the process of software development. In the Capstone Project you will document a Java-based Android application with UML diagrams and analyze evaluate the application’s architecture using the Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM). After completing this course, you will be able to: • Compare and contrast the components, connections, protocols, topologies, constraints, tradeoffs, and variations of different types of architectural styles used in the design of applications and systems (e.g., main program and subroutine, object-oriented, interpreters, pipes and filters, database centric, event-based). • Describe the properties of layered and n-tier architectures. • Create UML ipackage, component, and deployment diagrams to express the architectural structure of a system. • Explain the behaviour of a system using UML activity diagrams. • Document a multi-application system with a layered architecture.
This course takes Java beginners to the next level by covering object-oriented analysis and design. You will discover how to create modular, flexible, and reusable software, by applying object-oriented design principles and guidelines. And, you will be able to communicate these designs in a visual notation known as Unified Modelling Language (UML). You will be challenged in the Capstone Project to apply your knowledge of object-oriented design by evolving and documenting the Java codebase for an Android application with corresponding UML documentation. After completing this course, you will be able to: • Apply the Class Responsibility Collaborator (CRC) technique to analyze and design the object-oriented model for a problem. • Explain and apply object-oriented modeling principles and their purpose (e.g., abstraction, encapsulation, decomposition, generalization). • Explain and apply different types of inheritance • Explain the difference between association, aggregation, and composition dependencies. • Express object-oriented models as Unified Modeling Language (UML) class diagrams. • Translate between UML class diagrams and equivalent Java code. • Apply design guidelines for modularity, separation of concerns, information hiding, and conceptual integrity to create a flexible, reusable, maintainable design. • Explain the tradeoff between cohesion and coupling.

By the end of this course, learners will be able to define marketing and market research concepts, analyze historical perspectives, classify and apply different research types, and design research processes to support business decision-making. This structured program equips participants with the ability to evaluate customer satisfaction, forecast demand, test pricing sensitivity, and conduct test marketing to validate product strategies. The course is divided into three modules: foundations of marketing and research, an in-depth study of 21 types of market research, and a step-by-step exploration of research processes and methodologies. Each lesson combines conceptual clarity with practical application, ensuring learners gain both theoretical knowledge and hands-on understanding. What makes this course unique is its balance of history, practice, and real-world application. It goes beyond surface-level definitions to provide a comprehensive view of how research empowers businesses as a true “force multiplier.” By completing the course, learners will gain actionable insights to design and implement effective research strategies that drive competitive advantage.
Learn how nursing units are organized, managed, and staffed to support effective patient care in modern healthcare institutions. This course provides a practical introduction to nursing unit management, hospital ward organization, workforce planning, and nursing operational systems used in hospitals and healthcare facilities. The course begins by exploring the structural foundations of nursing units and hospital ward design. Learners will understand traditional and modern ward layouts, including Nightingale wards and modular nursing unit designs, and examine how these structures influence patient monitoring, infection control, workflow efficiency, and patient privacy. As the course progresses, learners explore progressive patient care systems, specialized nursing units, and the role of nursing services in healthcare delivery. The course also examines workforce planning strategies used to determine nursing staffing requirements based on workload, patient dependency, staffing norms, and healthcare operational needs. In addition, learners will study nurse scheduling systems, workload measurement techniques, patient classification systems, and operational policies that guide professional nursing practice. Common healthcare workforce challenges such as staff shortages and turnover are also explored along with management approaches used to improve nursing service efficiency. What makes this course unique is its integrated focus on nursing unit design, staffing systems, workforce planning, and healthcare operations. By the end of the course, learners will gain a comprehensive understanding of how nursing management systems support efficient hospital operations, workforce optimization, and high-quality patient care delivery.
