Solid "big picture" refresher course before getting into the more technical stuff I'm sure down the road, even for folks with backgrounds in math and science but haven't used it years (okay, decades).

I feel empowered, Thank you for the opportunity.

I am a Data Scientist but I am not practicing because I don't feel that my knowledge was proficient. This course give me the baseline I was lacking.

The program is well designed with a combination of videos, data journals, readings, activities and connecting with peer groups. The course is designed on the process of data analysis - ask, prepare, process, analyze, share, and act. Just perfect.

Being new to data analytics, I couldn't have asked for a smoother beginning. Though challenging, this course gave me everything I needed and more to not only pass it, but also raised my confidence in how I'll perfom over the courses that follow.

Great course. Encourage the addition of SQL training. Creating an interactive part of the course for SQL practice would be beneficial. A small program randomizing SQL questions requiring students to solve. No multiple choice for training on SQL.

It was a very Thorough Introduction into the data world! I had recently taken a data course in college so it was more of a refresher for me. But it was explained in a more simple matter than what my professor could do for a more expensive class.

The course gives a good overview of what we are going to learn. One thing that I did not enjoy was that it felt slightly dragged in the end with a lot of reflections. But perhaps some find it useful. Aside from that, excited to see what is next!

Took the course and I already used what I've learned to my daily life. Its a WOW!, even though I knew what is data, the course instructor shared more about data, then because of that I have found ways how to use data to benefit me and my family.

Despite a lot of parts being redundant, I can appreciate how reiterate concept can help them stick better. It worked for me especially on the SQL parts, which was a new language for me. Congratulations, I can't wait to move on to the next phase!

I have thoroughly enjoyed this course. I love the way it has engaged me to write out my key learning as log entries. This really helps to anchor my learning. This also helps me when it's time to recall this learned information. Let do some more!

This is the best course, it is easy to learn and has no extremely hard tests like other courses that give you about 300 questions and get only two wrong questions to pass. In this course, you will learn a lot. Thanks, Google and Coursera.👍👍👍

his course is a great introduction to data analytics. It covers both technical aspects of the job and the data analyst lifestyle. The only downside is occasional repetition and some parts could be more concise. Overall, it's a fantastic course!
