Very good course, giving beginners an overview of various aspects of data analysis, as well as having data analysts share their experiences, which is a great way for learners to get to know the field.

Great information but VERY misleading. Instead of showing a 5 week course load, I think it would have been more transparent to show that this is only the FIRST 5 weeks out of an eight course program.

As a course, Data Analysis is very complete. It gives a glimpse of the potential of the data. And it enhances personal skills, if they are properly reflected upon. I was also struck by the idea of equity or an idea of justice, it could be a transversal idea, also in decision-making.

Being basically new to data analysis, this course has been incredibly informative and has given me all the information to decide whether or not data analysis is for me. The answer to the previous sentence is a resounding yes, I am in hook line and sinker. Bring on the next course.
