The corse materiel was good and complete

Received and activated my course. Easy to operate, they even included a "how to utilize and navigate the learning system". So far I have only made use of it on my laptop, but will begin to use mobile app for continued learning while traveling.

The course is very well organized, and the interface is easy to use. It's fairly priced against its competition. A 25-year Navy Surface Warfare Officer who commanded two ships, I found the material succinct and salient. It was an enjoyable review of my knowledge, and I learned a few things too! There are typographical(?) errors that detract from the overall experience, and a few times when the material was probably wrong due to a misspelling or oversight. I would teach the navigation differently. Instead of independent fixes and navigation information extraction, I recommend the creation of a scenario-style series of fixes along an established track to teach the skills. Overall, I enjoyed the course and found it very useful in the pursuit of my merchant marine credentials.

Good looking product

Excellent way to learn at your own pace

Excellent program with many different learning approaches. I loved the ability to self-pace progress.

Very responsive.

This course is very well put together.

Too quick to ask for a review.

Ships fast

I like the no pressure system thus far. It's very hands off take it at your pace but knowing that the help is there if you need it is encouraging.

The course is very comprehensive. The format takes a little time to figure out.

Excellent service

So far, so good, learning a lot, worth the money!

Passed the test with room to spare

It was straightforward and I appreciate the convenience of being able to take a test without having to schedule an appointment.

A lot harder than I thought it would be. Lots of good info that helps me even just going out on my small boat

The information is there but the app is clunky and poorly laid out. Forcing a quiz after each small section does not add value to my study routine and I often find it disruptive.

Fantastic. Website is user friendly. Tasks and information at hand were extremely detailed and helpful.

I'm almost through the OUPV-Six pack before moving on to the Masters Upgrade. Overall, it's done the job. I especially appreciate being able to listen and/or watch a video for each webpage of the course. I have been frustrated sometiems with a feeling that the course creators assumed I had more prior experience with boats, the ocean, etc. than I actually have. Part of this feels like the product of the tradition of seamanship, which at times feels like 'the old guys club' or, alternately, a prestigious tradition I'm excited to be a part of and am literally being given access to but. . . maybe the only way to put it is sometimes is that the content needs to be dumbed down a bit more. I appreciate that's difficult because the curriculum and expectations of the Coast Guard itself may be a little outdated. Like I said, overall, it's getting the job done. If I can comprehend how to do chart-plotting without a live human explaining it, you've clearly done something right. Thank you.
