Excellent content. I like the versatility that the Activity Codes can provide not just for a single project schedule, but in an enterprise environment.

the material didn't provide an in-depth analysis of the targeted subject, I see it as very generic information,

Poor pixels of the video, Inappropriate sequence (2nd lesson should come first and first should go to second). Moreover, provide little bit more information on activity code.

Again another good video to understand better activity codes, I thought that it was understood but this video course helped improve it. Everything was good, liked the worshop alot. My only and single complaint is that as a non native english speaker, I have a terrible time understanding a couple of words and had to use subtitles. But it another good course on using primavera.
