Me ha resultado muy beneficioso como primer paso para una persona interesada en analítica de datos. Es un nivel muy básico el de este primer certificado, pero hay otro 7 que engloban este curso de google data analytics. Por tanto como punto inicial, lo veo muy bien.

Al terminar los 8 tendré una mejor visión de la calidad del curso.

This course has helped me understand the role as a data analyst and how data is used to help business make fair and accurate decisions based on facts. I have a background in data but this has added a great foundation I felt I was missing when I first started my journey. I'm excited to continue the program and earn my certificate.

Very easy to use for people who are completely new and don't have a background in technology. It does a great job in setting expectations. I also appreciate that when you get an answer wrong, it refers you back to where they gave you the information. This course has a great way of balancing excitement with realistic expectations.

Very helpful course to understand the basics of Data, how data plays an important role for any Data Analyst.

What steps one should follow, how the process works, and what tools can be used.

A fair insight with examples makes it more alive and easy to understand.

I would recommend this to anyone who is new to Data and Data Analytics.

The foundation course will give you an amazing overview on what will be expected of you as a Data Analyst. The course is perfect for someone with little to zero knowledge on the discipline. Since, I had some idea about the field, it was an prolific refresher and reminded me of small infos that I usually tend to overlook at work.

It was a really interesting course as part of this Google certification. I was able to learn the basics of data analysis. We didn't start directly with the technique and I think it's good to know the why of everything we will do afterwards. I'm looking forward to continuing to go in depth to discover the wonderful world of data.

This is a great foundational course to learn the basics. I really liked that there are transcripts for every video and that different people who worked at Google appeared in videos to share their personal experience as it relates to data analytics. I would also recommend if you want to learn about what career paths are possible.

Good foundational course and overview. Some of the topics covered such as using an excel file is at a beginner level. Good reinforcement and reiteration of the data analysis process.

This is an excellent overview to the data world. Not just on data analysis, but for whoever that wants to know where each specialisation of data analytics play a role. The course was nicely designed and easy-to-follow, and the whole theme was google-ishly pleasant. Looking forward to moving to the next stage of the certificate.

I really appreciated the slower deliberate pace that Tony used for introducing the material to those who are new to the field. The content, the exercises, the visualization, information on future possibilities in the industry, and the introduction to other course instructors all made it an exciting and non-intimidating course!

I give it 5 star because has Computer Science graduate I found it so goal oriented and insightful. Thank you google for making it so comfortable to learners in terms of bringing the understanding gap that exists in institutions due to approach used for 'our institutions'. They make things hard forgetting the goal of education!

This is course was really good. I believe the build-up to the other courses really makes it easier for me to understand everything about analysis, especially when I have no background about the topic at all. This is a really good way for me, and for others to start in this career--building a skill.

Thank you for your hard work!

I found the course challenging and very intuitive. I feel the the different ways to answer

given questions and different templates is great. Seeing others answer in the discussion forum is also helpful.

Seeing my daily advancement when I log-in inspires me to keep going. I would like to keep learning and reach different goals.
