Everything was perfect but some questions on the practice and graded quizzes were tricky. The answers conflicted from the point of view side so it might need a better explanation for the right answer.

Good level of practical activities with the Google Sheets errors task and the course challenge - but still a little basic with few opportunities to see formulas/functions in action or to use SQL.

I feel like this course was rather lackluster and only reinforces basics that most professionals and/or fresh graduates are already aware of. Regardless, it was a good refresher and quick paced.

The instructor was not as engaging as Tony was. It was not bad! It's just that Tony set the bar way too high I guess. And that's okay because he was one of the best instructors I have ever had.

Spreadsheets were not a new concept to me and slowed my learning.

Communication tips were helpful although not a new concept for me.

Presenter was engaging.

Quizzes good way to test knowledge.

Good stuff and it was a nice way to get some intro Excel skills. I am not as much a fan of the scripted sound of the instructor, but I understand that may be a best practice for MOOCs. Thanks!

The course is pretty detailed and focuses on real world working scenarios and forces one to think practically. I just felt the necessity of more technical tasks and everything else was good.

The teaching was an eye opener, it highlighted how I have been making decisions in my work experience that is attributable to data analysis. It's kept me excited and eager to keep going. :)

Muito bem desenhado e muito bem elaborado. O único detalhe é que é totalemente voltado a questões relativas a vendas e ao mercado e não aborda outras situações de uso e utilidade de dados.

Good. I enjoyed every bit of it. But the assessment, a bit intimidating, i. e. the scenarios. Well I suppose it is part of the strategy to prepare us for the world out there. I get it.

This course outcomes fully dependent on practical and real life problems. To ask and communicate with others, is a major part of data analyst job. At the end of the day, Data is people.

The last exam was so confusing with the questions that it got to a point where I just mixed up all of the definitions. Although taking a break from it did help me out have a fresh mind

Got a ton of validation from this training. I was already sort of doing some of this on my own, was good to see I was on the right path. The exercises were also nice to practice with!

Two of the topics in the final exam, primary and secondary stakeholders and historical data were difficult for me to draw the information/conclusions needed to answer the questions.

please do not include practice questions in weekly challenges, majority of the questions feels repetitive and take away the interest in answering the same questions again and again

The course was good in terms of how things work in this phase of the data analysis process. But, if more real-life case studies were part of it, it would have been more impactful.

The material seems to be really useful. My main observation is that the videos seem to drag on and at times not be very clear on what the most important information to take away.
