Because the lecture got very boring. Delivering important information in the same monotone, he lost me after the business model canvas....I am a former educator.

Great insight into the building blocks of entrepreneurship. It strips it down into small usable lectures that allow you to go at your own pace.

Amazing!!! I always thought that Business plan was first, but it's so hard to do it, because getting the information for something that detailed is insanely hard!! So you really need a business model that has your business fundamentals down to get the information from to go into your business plan!

This course is so clear and​ precise, literally just tells you step from step what to do, it's amazing!

Helpful content. Clear, engaging, knowledgeable presenter. I would have left a 5 if the resources shared and questions articulated were available in some downloadable fashion (powerpoints, pdf's etc) That makes it so much easier to access immediately and in the future.

I did the first free course and was very impressed. This course, though also standing well by itself, is a logical progression. Dr Cornwall is always clear and mostly concise. I say mostly, because there is a little repetition, but where it does exist, it's because he's trying to hammer home a really important idea that is often overlooked or misunderstood. Right from of the off, you will be in no doubt that you are in very good hands with someone who knows their stuff, and also happens to know how to communicate it effectively.

I'm hoping to launch my own start-up soon, and I've found that I have had to work my way through a lot of patent nonsense and hype to get to the genuine nuggets of practical wisdom that can help me succeed. I definitely rate Dr Cornwall's courses amongst the latter. There are a few minor things you could nitpick on. The Idea Sketchpad he refers to, has moved to a different web address, and it's no longer free, although there is a free trial period. Frankly though, these are not nearly enough to take the gloss off a great little course. This course will prime you with a solid grasp of the fundamentals of business models within a reasonable time period. I'm Glad I took it. Good value for money too. I'll be watching out for the next one!
