Good content but kind of boring to read. The modules were very lengthy. A lot of links do not work. Quiz & assignment due every week. Some assignments are extremely difficult/lengthy (e.g. writing a SOP, study protocol, final report). Most assignments have word limits but it is hard to stay within the limits. Final exam was mostly common sense- the right answer was easy to spot (included questions on stats topics). Content from the links is NOT included in the exam.
Discusses key elements of a lab QA program and various QC measures: facility requirements, safety, equipment, validation, test article (sample/evidence), SOPs, study protocols, reports, record archiving, accreditation and regulations. The module content is very in depth but not super helpful for the more involved assignments because it doesn't give examples.
No interaction. TAs graded assignments.
Be as detailed as possible but you have to stay within the limits they give you.

This course has good material. But overall the assignments kind of have nothing to do with what you learn in the modules. There are quizzez every week and the assignments, just prepare to write an essay for everything but be prepared because itll probably be wrong anyway.
The modules are useful but assignments are useless. The quizzes are more useful.
The professor literally does nothing and isnt apart of any of it. The TA's do everything. Not only that, but the grading is HORRIBLE. Like they deduct points for references because they didnt like them. They will give a 2 point question and deduct when its not a paragraph answer. If you dont give exactly word for word what they want to hear, good luck. It was ridiculous. The class content is literally mindless but the grading, good luck. A lot of the assignments, they were vague with what they wanted and then you paid max penalty if one thing is missing. kind of wild.
Literally write essays for everything and include as much as you possibly could ever imagine and pray they will even give you an 80 on assignments.
