The course provides a very high level on PE and VC. I feel the content is mostly academic and I would appreciate a thorough analysis of a real-world case. The modeling part has a lot left to be desired. I believe in a real-world case you won't get the numbers like what you would in a CFA exam. You will have to dig out the numbers, ex: comparable companies, from various sources. Overall, I feel the course is ok to get some background knowledge, but has a strong disconnect from practicality.

The course was a perfect start to learn about Private Equity. I enjoyed learning each one of the modules, fascinated by the vast materials. Though module 1 was a breeze, module 2 was overloaded. Module 4, which covered the most interesting concept of all in my opinion, failed to provide the intuitive understanding. It was a bunch of formulae and calculations. I learned the nuances of the venture capital market and can't wait to apply my learnings. Thank you!

EL curso es una muy buen introducción al Private equity pero se queda ahi por temas de tiempo. Las presentaciones están trabajdas y el ponente es bueno y le pone mucho entusiasmo. Un poco mas de tiempo y quizás se pueden hacer mas casos prácticos. en algunas escuelas de negocios de nivel un curso de Private Eqauity dura 10 meses.

Week 4 is very difficult, a clear definition of the financial terms related to company valuation should be kept in place. Simply, I need first to have a clear understanding of all these terms and then I can proceed with the relevant equations. This was the only difficult part of the course. Other 3 weeks were very good.

Some mistakes in slides and calculations.

Focus mainly on PE and only a little bit of VC.

Maths Formulas only explained in a superficial way, a lot of internet research is necessary to understand the content properly.

With some prior business knowledge a worthwile course that enhances your skillset in PE&VC

Great introduction into the PE and VC, however, few examples. No relevant background on what it actually takes to set up a VC fund (I understand this is a broad topic, as the answer will depend on the country you are setting up the fund, however links to additional resources would have been great).

I am almost done with the course. The course Is a great intro touches on some of the important subjects but it lacks the depth required to cover the topic appropriately. would love to see a specialization in this topic with more hours and content covered.

There need to be updates in the videos and interviews. the data / reference pertains year 2014 /2015. as this very dynamic field so there needs to be regular updates on the some parts of the course which need to reviewed every six months.

The course is really good and the professor well prepared. It should include more real life examples and it should analyze a real PE firm or fund. Most of the courses are abstract and they do not analyze a real life case.
