Good introduction to some of the core concepts and skills that are going to be needed. Very nice usage of virtual machines to allow for actual practice, and the introduction of various tools and websites that are going to be used was well paced and logical.

I love that this course takes time to introduce to beginners the tools involved and how to use tem for the purpose of preparing data. I love that the instructor takes time to expalin the concepts and the exercises reinforce what you just learnt. Top class.

Great balance in this course. Good experience with the hands-on labs on SQL and Sheets using QwikLabs. Emphasis on a lot of real-life considerations to be made when preparing data for analysis. Good section on maintaining an online presence professionally.

Arguably one of the more interesting parts of this Career Path, focused on Data Ethics and structuring. You won`t be getting your hands dirty with a lot of programming/analysis here, but you`ll learn some important things that only professionals consider.

The instructor is excellent. The only problems I encountered were related to Kaggle and BigQuery so I can't fault them. It's best to use Sandbox if you don't have at least a dollar in your account . The Google Cloud trial is not entirely free at first.

Great course for preparing data. I've learned a lot of the course that inculdes data types and data structures, bias and credibilty, databases, organizing and protecting data. I'm so glad that I finish one more course of google data analytics courses!

Excellent presentation, very thorough and understandable. Relatable analogies and examples. This course was a tremendous help in my data analytics journey and I will be revisiting this course for reference in the future.

Thank you and best wishes :)

I liked the presentors style. She didn't make it too remedial or too hard. I wish the course moved a little faster, but better this than to not understand things, especially in a remote scenario. Her jokes made it fun since she didn't belabor them.

I had never worked with data at such high levels. It was an enriching experience because now I can organize, separate, classify data and process it safely. Putting into use the rules and specifications of the organization to which I provide services.

Very informative course to let me get started with data science stuff such as SQL, python and statistics, spreadsheet, google forms. I will upgrade these skills by using other tools. But this course gives me insights about what I should learn further

This course is very informative and beginner-friendly. It is very helpful to develop basic foundational skills in data analysis. For me, the most interesting part was guided project and writing SQL queries. Thank you Coursera for this great course...

Mais um curso que vem atender as minhas expectativas. Que todas as empresas possam direcionar recursos para outros sejam atingidos por essa iniciativa de cada vez mais melhor o ensino e estimular a busca por aprendizado e conhecimento. Muito Obrigado

Enjoyed a lot. Data bias, data credibility, types of data, sorting and filtering of data and many more things were learned. Suggest new users take up this part of the Professional certificate a bit slowly if you don't have prior knowledge about data.

Muy buen curso, me gusto mucho los tips y consejos para ordenar bien las bases de datos, que tipos de fuentes de datos externas son confiables, el uso se SQL para buscar datos y por su puesto el uso de Google sheets para el análisis además de Excel

Great course, hang in there. At times you may feel frustrated but upon completion you would feel satisfied. All great things in life will challenge you first, you need to be patient before you can reap the benefits. Good luck and enjoy the course.

Coursera allows me the space to make mistakes, directs me to previous learnings to go back to in my modules so that I can soak things up again to succeed. The course has been very digestible and really a great opportunity to expand my learnings

You gain knowledge, skills and experience to help you both in your career and in life in general. On top of that, by gaining additional skills in communication and problem solving and achieving your goals, you can also increase your confidence

Excellent course with detailed explanations and hands on activities to understand SQL, BigQuery, data security, and databases. Would highly recommend this course for anyone that would like to expand their overall understanding of these topics.

Thank you for not disappointing and making these hours at coursework really fruitful. It was great to start learning something conclusive like SQL and about Big Data. Looking forward to learning more and exploring what I didn't know till now.

Fantastic and engaging course that also introduces ways to enhance your online presence which is a key aspect in opening new opportunities as well as improving one's own skills. Very informative course and I definitely learned a lot from it.

Hallie was a great teacher. You can tell she really enjoys what she does in her career and is eager to share it with others. Her positive attitude definitely helped in following along and helped with enjoying the topics I was learning about.

This course was very useful for me. It was the first time I learnt how to create datasets and how to use BigQuery. Now, I feel confident about becoming a data analyst. In addition, I was able to create accounts with Google Cloud and Kaggle.

I was impressed on the hands-on practices that this course provided. In the beginning I had some doubts and then I was given the google cloud to import, clean and analyze a data and that really got me interested. thank you for this insight.

Excellent course, I recommend it. I learnt about the different types of data, about bias, privacy, spreadsheets and all the important subjects for my nex step of preparation to obtain the Google Data Analyst Certification.

Thanks Coursera!!

I have been loving these courses and I think anyone with no prior knowledge can get started with the learning. I love the instructors and all the reflection materials, tests and assignments. I totally recommend people to take the course.
