it has been a particulary pleasent course to do. It Is really helpful to understand (and get it as well) the main aspect of a contract. It is made by audio lessons and slides to review the contents, plus tests on what have you been learning during each lessons. And at the end of the course you can get a Final examination. Thank you to Yasmine and the LCATE team always available, helpful and nice as well.
