Great introduction into the remaining courses. I love that there are different learning methods, ie, audio and reading and that there are quizzes at the end of each to help you digest the information.

Interesting beginner level course. I fell that some quiz questions are way too ez to deduce even if you have not paid any attention to the subject. I did pay attention because I do take this couse seriously, but honestly, an attentive person can litteraly just glide and skip straight to the quizes and pass. Please review your multiple choices.

While I feel like it covered a lot of information and laid out a great framework of the history of CS, I felt as if there was any real substance to gather and asked myself will this help me with a job in the industry

Great high level introduction to cybersecurity, but the industry does not recognize this certificate in any meaningful way and it has been nearly impossible to find a job

I think it has too many explanations and the whole thing about the forums is very annoying for me. That's been said, it makes the certification more difficult to follow.

Demasiado básico, curso 1 y curso 2 deberían compartir más contenido. Demasiado contenido en el curso 2 y el curso 1 tiene muy poco

Videos were a bit boring to watch since the instructor was clearly just reading off a script, but the other activities were fine

Very basic and more focused on terminology and introducing general concepts. Good overview if you're totally new to security.
