There are 4 modules in this course
The first truly hands-on technical phase of the data science process is actually a combination of related tasks known as extract, transform, and load (ETL). This is where you, the data science practitioner, start to mold and shape the data so that it can be as useful as possible for the later steps in the data science process. In this course, you'll go through each ETL task in order, starting with "E" (extract).

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Certificate, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work.
