A course to beter understand the importance of multiple collaboration between the actors in any human group. Sharing knowledge and experience with no particular interest. LED help Improve income, quality of life, giving employment and creating economies for populations that before did not have opportunities.

It taught me about the need of local economic development and how it can be done with efficiency. It helped me to realize why my locality needs to be involved in economic activities to boost up national economy and we need to start small and gradually look to the bigger picture.

This course has given me an insight on Local Government Administration. As a person who is delighted in contributing positively toward my locality when it comes development, I am grateful for the opportunity and lessons received. Thank you.

The material of the course is excellent. However, the course lacks an active discussion forum. Input, feedback, and discussion are the core of a such course subject.

Thank you for this opportunity!

Although dated and dense, it contains a great deal of scopes and tools to effectively put LED strategies to work. However, it requires time, attention and willingness to get the best from it.

Great course and well delivered. The facilitators are very well knowledgeable about the topics on local economic develop. I would definitely recommend for any LED practitioner.

I thought the course was very informative. It really gave me an introduction into the field of LED. Definitely have a lot of notes to study.

A very beneficial and insightful course . I am elated I took this course . Now I understand the Local Economic Development in my region !

Very useful, I only wished it had more methodical exercises (like some management exercises and maybe some quantitative operations).

I loved the case studies part. It should contain more of them!

I liked the broad overview and the information provided.

I love this course just what i need at this time.

very innovative and i learnt a lot

Very good course

Good, sure

Good course, the downside I saw were that the case studies and reading were 10-20 years old. A lot of the examples were from developing countries and so were my classmates. Therefore the course was not as relevant to my city of 2 million and it didn't contain recent literature of good examples I could draw on.

I would like to sincerely thank all the teachers, Erasmus University Rotterdam, and everyone at the Coursera website. I am very happy to have completed the course on Local Economic Development. I hope to apply this knowledge in the field of economics, especially within my community. Thank you.

Informative and Helpful to those who may want to better understand how local economic development work in developing countries.

The video lectures could have been in more detail and more examples could have been used to explain concepts.
