très bon contenu, des intervenants qui étaient pertinents. Pour aller vers la perfection la traduction française est perfectible et la procédure pour soumettre des corrections a des cours dont la traduction est considérée comme ''terminée'' devrait être facilitée.

I learned a lot during this course on the fundamentals. Having a lifestyle background with computers really helped me complete this course. While I learned a lot, I knew a lot of the information as well. I expect that the other modules will go into further detail.

I'm super grateful for an opportunity like this. This beginner's course was fairly basic, but there were tidbits of information that I did not previously know sprinkled throughout, and I am looking forward to the more advanced content in the later courses to come.

Engaging and relatable presenters who spoke with common sense and provided step-by-step outlines for each topic. Some of the qwiklabs were tricky, but gave me a sense of accomplishment when I finished navigating each one. Looking forward to taking the next course!

This is a very good introductory course into IT and tech in general. I am coming from the field of urban design. Though I knew a bit about different computer components and how they work, I feel this was a great first step into transitioning into a career in tech.

I really learned a lot and felt discouraged at first because I'm not the smartest person but after doing majority of the tests after each lesson I was surprised I had passing grades and over for majority of them. I am eagered to learn more and complete this course

This is phenomenal course. For a guy like me who had a very small understanding about computer, it really gave me a full understanding of how the computer works. Nitty-Gritty of the hardware, OS, software and networking was explained clearly, hitting the bulls-eye

Great knowledge transmission. Thanks. I really liked the way all the teachers taught technical knowledge AND soft skills like problem solving, interacting with a user. Even though I already knew most of the content it was a very satisfying and interesting moment.

Curso de excelente qualidade. Os laboratórios práticos e métodos das provas/atividades são bem diferenciados. Os vídeos também pausam e apresentam perguntas no meio da explicação, para ter certeza que o aluno está absorvendo as informações etc. Recomendo demais.

This course is a great way to find out if IT is a new path you want to take. There are many fields in IT and this course gives you a basic run down of them and gives you the the tools and knowledge from experts that have years of experience. Highly recommend it!
