PharmD student here, also potentially interested.

The website seems to be very low on information content about the specifics of the course. On one page they mentioned it requiring a total of about 10-12 hours of work. How is this spaced out? Is the course self-paced or does it follow a schedule? If a group does the course, do group members have to coordinate on the start date?

Can you describe a case study you've worked on while taking the course? The limited information in this post and on the website might otherwise leave many people (e.g. myself) uncertain about whether they would benefit from this course.

Cool, thanks. If we manage to get a class section, I'm in.

Thanks for making this available. I registered, though I don't expect to start working on the course until next Sunday.
