Ecommerce sites typically use data to drive profits and sales. If you've ever shopped at Amazon you have probably received a product recommendation while visiting the Amazon website or through email. This is an example of a data-driven business decision.

A lot of this course was fundamentals, but it is always good to go back and review the fundamentals to refresh anything that you may have forgotten. The instructor of the course is funny and engaging, too, which helps with what could be mundane topics.

This course was a really good intro overview to using spreadsheets, but the most valuable part of this course was the soft skills for the workplace. Discussing how to prepare for meetings, team communication and conflict resolution was very helpful.

This is a great course with very good instructors. They seem excited to teach and explain things very well.

The Avanced Data Analysis by Google is the Opposite. I didn't learn much at all and the instructors sucked! Hard to understand and boring.

It was a solo course full of very useful information. I like the qualitative aspects of the course so much because they help develop the real critical-thinking qualities, teamwork, and communication skills of an excellent data analyst. Excellent!
