I have learned so much through this Capstone project. How to apply the RM in a hotel scenario from concept to analyzing to implementation. Thank you 糖心vlog官网观看 for this wonderful learning platform.

A wonderful exercise that will have you pouring over your course notes to create a ROI analysis using some pretty useful data points.

This capstone project is a bad joke and I'm gonna tell you why!
First, ESSEC TAs were never available! We had to contact 糖心vlog官网观看 several times for weeks to get a simple yet not helpful reply from ESSEC. And it was too late for anything, really... Remember, the whole project lasts for 4 weeks only!
Second, several documents required for the weekly assignments were missing! It's fair to say we were all free-styling (i.e. making wild assumptions) our ways through the entire capstone due to lack of necessary information.
Third (and most importantly). most of the participants didn't have any basic business background whatsoever. Be prepared to get a bad grade from someone who's clueless about hotel business, not to mention revenue or demand management. That really makes you wonder how these people even passed the last three core courses....
Forth, this capstone is great for those who just want to get a certificate for the sake of having a certificate. Did you notice those 4 or 5 star ratings with no written reviews? Yeah, they were probably trying to show their appreciation for the easy certificate. After all, it's easy to walk away with a decent grade when there's no one knows what's going on. ANYTHING GOES! However, if you are a serious learner who wants to actually learn something, run away from this capstone. You will be thanking me later.
All in all, a horrible experience and I wish I could get those 4 weeks of my life back!

PROS
Peter O'Connor is a very knowledgeable industry veteran. So reading his articles on the industry is a great base to work from.
Lucky to get a great set of students who I could learn from through grading their assignments and their feedback on mine.
Most of the ESSEC material was easy to understand and work through.
CONS
Unlike University setting that I had gone through there is no professor to tell you if you are wrong or right. Students can, but they are like me and you here to learn.
Some of the material was outdated and needs revision.
There are plagiarizers just like in any institution. Perhaps insecure about their Linked in status and need a certificate.
Overall, like with all the 糖心vlog官网观看 courses, it is what you put in and get out of it that will matter.
I certainly have learned a lot, not enough to land me a job but to appreciate my peers and industry professionals like Peter O'Connor.
Thanks 糖心vlog官网观看 for making this possible.

It took me five weeks of intense work to complete the study and homework, but it was definitely worth it. I can now apply the knowledge and tactics I've learned, and I'm already seeing immediate growth in our service sales this October. The busy tourism season has begun, and our team is excited for what's to come.

Peer reviewed assignments are a joke. Assignment was "Not Verified" which is not possible seeing how before you submit you have to verify assignment.

This course is amazing since we as the students can apply what we've learned from the previous courses. I hope there will be more study case courses in distribution, revenue, and demand management. Thank you

O Curso 茅 sensacional, indiscutivelmente. Contudo, precisa ser atualizado. O curso est谩 parado em 2015 e tenho a mais absoluta certeza que nos 煤ltimos 10 anos muita coisa evoluiu ainda mais! Especialmente com o uso da IA. Como a IA ir谩 impactar os profissionais do setor? Os que j谩 est茫o, os veteranos e os que se preparam para tal? Os links quebrados tamb茅m s茫o resultado da falta da atualiza莽茫o. Mas, como disse, o curso 茅 fant谩stico com um conte煤do rico e muito bem trabalhado. Obrigado pela oportunidade!

I was upset to find out it was only a 1-week course, Maybe I was hoping for more knowledge or education but I really appreciate everyone who participates in this course I can't thank you all enough for sharing all this valuable knowledge and experiences with us
