About the Course

This is the third course in the Google Data Analytics Certificate. As you continue to build on your understanding of the topics from the first two courses, you’ll be introduced to new topics that will help you gain practical data analytics skills. You’ll learn how to use tools like spreadsheets and SQL to extract and make use of the right data for your objectives, and how to organize and protect your data. Current Google data analysts will continue to instruct and provide you with hands-on ways to accomplish common data analyst tasks with the best tools and resources. Learners who complete this certificate program will be equipped to apply for introductory-level jobs as data analysts. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, learners will: - Find out how analysts decide what data to collect for analysis. - Learn about structured and unstructured data, data types, and data formats. - Discover how to identify different types of bias in data to help ensure data credibility. - Explore how analysts use spreadsheets and SQL within databases and data sets. - Examine open data and the relationship between, and importance of, data ethics and data privacy. - Gain an understanding of how to access databases and extract, filter, and sort the data they contain. - Learn best practices for organizing data and keeping it secure....

The lessons were easy to follow through and the explanantions were easy to understand. The hands-on practices also helped improve hands-on skills with the data analysis tools introduced in this course

Thank you for the course! It's a nice introduction to SQL and Google Big Query as well as the concepts of data privacy and security. The course also offers some great tips for professional networking.

Hopefully Google will not ask credit card details for the trial of Big query access. Of better to use an alternative Big Query to practice of try for new learners. Not all people have credit card to begin with.

Week 3 is so awful, that I am giving this course one star before even finishing it. You have students considering dropping the course because of the issues. It needs to be fixed immediately.

Support was very poor. I had an issue where the video and actual working on BigQuery wasn't matching up. The course took me longer than expected, and support was helpful at all :(

There is very little practical information contained in this course. I am extremely disappointed and don't feel this has helped me learn how to prepare data at all.

when you waived the fee for the course, then why did you cheat and ask to upgrade in the middle of the course in order to continue

Redundant.

Instructor quizzes arranged in such a way as to be intentionally tricky.

Not clear, not instructive, distracting style

It might be pretty decent but after 180 after purchase it locks you out, without warning. I wish it told you that somewhere.

This course does not teach data analytics (how to add value with data analysis). It teaches tools used in data analytics.
