I took the course because it is part of a learning path since I currently work as a Programmer Analyst but even having a good part of the knowledge shared in the course I feel that I managed to learn and improve my understanding on certain points.

Es un curso muy interesante que te muestra todas las características y herramientas necesarias para ser un ingeniero de software. Ayuda mucho a enfocar a personas que tienen conocimientos en la parte de datos, pero no en el área de software.
