The course was very informative and engaging. I liked the logical progression from module to module. I highly recommend this course, although it keeps you wanting more, as five courses complete the training. I have only taken the first course.

This course was TREMENDOUSLY helpful in solidifying my foundational knowledge of IT concepts. The way things were broken down and explained seemed a little daunting at first, but honestly it was all very straightforward and easy to understand.

The Fundamentals course was excellent. The videos are short enough not to cause a laps in attention, but contain a lot of important information. The hands on labs are perfect. They are not just a simulation, they are real world environments.

I found that this course presented the basics in a way most people could easily understand. Some of the labs with the virtual spaces could be tough for someone with no experience. That being said I had no problem troubleshooting issues myself.

Love the short videos with reading materials for further investigation. The format is simple and very well paced to allow the learner to absorb and retain information as well as get back to key areas for review. Thumbs up, Google and Coursera.

This course material might seem to you somewhat annoying, trivial, or unnecessary. However, it's unexpectedly satisfying and mostly does its job. I wonder how many lectors have been laid off in G*'s recent laying off of 6% of its workforce...
