Overall this was a refresher for me. I was able to reconnect with some of the Excel functions and can now apply those to my current job. The teachings and exercises I found useful and easy to follow.

Wow, the practical (Hands on ) part is a boom! How did the course disigner/ instructor and the rest of the team involved manage to do that?
Also the review part....so well done and easy to follow!

A very good and well structured course, with very professional hands on learning that has given me so much new knowledge and improved my excel skills and in certain areas furthered my understanding.

el curso es bueno, te ayuda a como trabajar con datos sabiendo ediante atajos del teclado usando Excel, y no necesariamente debes trabajar con fuertes tecnologias. Me parecio util este curso

The course has really helped me become familiar with using Excel for data analysis. i recommend it for anyone who has no knowledge about how to use Excel and also for amateur Excel users.

Even though I have five years of experience in MS Excel, I have learned new tips and Infos from this course. I truly recommend it.

Overly simplistic and takes a LONG time to explain the basics of Excel (3 of 5 weeks is devoted to "basic" functionality and familiarity with buttons). If this was a completely introductory course on Excel, sure, but this is for a professional certificate. I expect a little more substance and challenge. I learned a bit about PivotTables (much easier than older Excel versions), but nothing I didn't already know, and it didn't explain HOW they work and exactly WHAT they're used for and their specific benefits.

Overall, this is a very good basis excel course.
But, it doesn't provide enough hands-on projects. And students aren't able to verify the result of the projects.
Also, it only shows the short cut for windows excel, not for ios excel.
It still needs some improvement to make it better for the data analysts.

Lots of broken links. The final project had a broken link to the dataset you're supposed to use, making it impossible to complete the course. I submitted something anyway, based on a different dataset, but with all the right steps taken, but my reviewer just gave me zeros on multiple steps that I clearly completed properly (no shock, since most people doing the reviews can't read English, and couldn't possibly have read my notes pointing out my reason for using a different dataset). The course content was fine, but if I'm being promised a certificate for doing the work, and you refuse to give it to me because of your stupid mistake and sloppy review system, then you're just scamming people. How this has almost 5 stars is beyond me.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. The lessons are very easy to follow. I completed the hands-on labs and that further solidified the skills taught in the lessons. It's a fantastic course.

Great overall course. While most of the Excel topics were things I was already using or familiar with, I did come away from the course with a few new skills in Excel.

Great course. Really teaches you the basis. Only feedback is my name was spelled incorrectly on my certificate. But I'm sure that's an easy fix.

Very detailed and easy to follow but could be improved by having a dummy excel sheets for the students to work and follow with the instructor.

Great Excel basic course provided by IBM. It made me learn many things about excel and its usage in various aspects of data analysis. Only thing I didn't enjoy is the computer sound used in all the videos. Because of the computer sound/artificial sound used, it lacked the personal touch one would enjoy. So I have only 2 suggestions to give :
1) Use a teacher/professor/expert who can teach us and take us through each and every aspect.
2) The assignments are sometimes difficult to complete because certain features are not available in certain excel versions

While fairly basic for people familiar with Excel, it ensures a good basis as one moves forward to have a solid foundation for data analysis. And there absolutely were a few tricks and shortcuts that I learned. Also very much appreciated that this was more hands-on than previous DA courses have been which is necessary to really gain understanding.

I strongly advise anyone using Coursera to ALWAYS double-check your peer-reviewed finals. Both peer-reviewed finals I have completed, on the first round of "peer-review" have been incorrectly graded. The only reason I know this is because I double-checked my grades and peer reviews. BOTH TIMES, the initial "peer-reviewer" has incorrectly graded my final, and the only recourse I could take is to re-submit my final, not knowing if the next :peer-reviewer" would actually grade correctly, according to the rubric. Just saying, double check your final grades, and fight for the grade you know you deserve.

The people controlling the final project are incompetent. They misjudged even the simplest parts. Unbelievable!

The course met my expectations, it gave me a glance at very important aspects and techniques of excel that even though I thought I knew, I didnt. I look forward to the future courses. I expect to feel like an expert by the time I finish the course. The theory explained and the practice tests are very advanced and right to the point.

Great course! The only drawback is the peer graded assignment. My assignment was graded blindly by someone that I reckon didn't even open my files. That kind of behaviour is pretty disheartening for someone who was really put all of their effort honestly.

Very good for the basics and a little more, I think it could do with a couple more exercises on our own, otherwise a great base!
