The workload was a lot more than I had imagined, but I found that this helped make the courses more engaging, and therefore also more rewarding. Once I found a little more time to go through the materials (as just watching all the videos can take quite some time, but I found a button on the online videos that allowed you to play them at more than 100% speed), and take all the online quizzes, assignments, and exams, I found that I was quickly able to settle in to the courses. I've now even enrolled in a couple more!<br />I hope you're enjoying the course.<br />Alexander S.
