I thought the Online course of Corporate Law and Employment Law might be a somewhat dry subject since the law and contracts require a lot of reading and exchange. But Professor Michael R Fricke made it very interesting with his unique style and simple to understand presentation based on advantages for catering to a larger audience. The law in business is also an essential element that provides a critical understanding of the business environment, agency, employee rights, termination, Union and their actions, etc. The course covered The Sale of Goods: UCC Article 2 provisions and the subtle nuances of the contract. Thank you Professor Mr. Michael R Fricke.

This course is really well taught. The instructor explains the concepts clearly and uses appropriate examples. The quizes use well-written multiple choice questions that make you pause and think before answering. I loved the short, check-for-understanding two-question quizzes at the end of each video. I wish the course would have said more about the differences between contracts for goods and services, and there isn't anything in the course that discusses service contracts. But otherwise, I would recommend this course to anyone who wants a basic introduction to contracting! Thank you!

An outstanding course and instructor. Please offer more law courses from Illinois. Professor Fricke discusses the topics passionately and in an engaging way is if you were taking a live class. You won't regret taking this course if you have any interest in contracts. I took this course to apply to my daily work, and to enhance the knowlege and skills I've learned through experience. This was my first course offered by UIUC, it inspired me to enroll in other specializations offered by the school.

I ventured into this course to gain insight into the fundamentals of corporate law and the terminologies and legislation that it entails. Not only did it help me develop a fair understanding of the discipline but also got me interested to read more about it. I feel a lot informed than before and could not thank Coursera and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign more for making that happen. I’ve found this course to be decidedly instructive, and worth every minute I spent on it.

Starts with the Basics of Contract formation, Moves to agency contracts and then ends up in Employment contracts with some shadow of Industrial relations and certain disputes. Nice course to learn all under one course with a wonderful mentor delivering knowledge outside of a classroom/virtual classroom scenario and last but not the least, providing real -life interviews for getting the practical scenario as well.

The professor was very clear on all of their exclamations and how certain aspects of contracts, employer laws, employee laws strikes, labor unions discharges and breaches of contract in a very simplified manner. The course is also fun and I did not find myself ever getting bored. I found it more difficult to put my iPad down to give myself a break because I was so interested in what the professor had to say.

Most importantly I liked the content so much which is very practical that I could relate with the live examples and case studies from my experience. Thank you Coursera and University of Illinois.

I loved that the delivery was solely done through video lectures and a single PowerPoint document. Prof Fricke was really relatable, down to earth and used simple language and examples for easy understanding. I really enjoyed the course and I am even glad of the understanding I have now concerning the subject. I look forward to the next part of the course.

I think this course is useful for all those lawyers who are interested in this field and not only for them. The study materials and lectures were easy to understand and therefore helped me to write quizzes and pass the exams.
