Comments

 * The employment life-cycle is a powerful gestalt for organising the course - but not sure of the optimal placement of this learning pathway. (Perhaps it should be included as a reference link in each micro course?) --Mackiwg (talk) 10:14, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Note: Suggest dropping Chapter 10 and Chapter 11 from Remuneration and rewards section - learner overload issues.
