This gives a great foundation for Data Analytics. The instructors do skim over everything and I would have liked more detail but most of what I wanted to find out more about I was able to find online.

Each and every module in the course is really interesting, i learned a lot from this course a data analyst is not a analyzing the data and showing the visualizations it is about asking the right questions and can be solved by using the data by the analytical skills.

The course is really a great one, I learnt a lot from it. It really opened my eyes to large volumes of data around me and its usefulness. Data is life, I say. Great teachers, the journey was really worthwhile. Thanks to Google and Coursera for putting this together.

When I applied to this certificate. I thought that all of this would be easy, especially the final quiz it will be like a recap or something. But after I finished my first course, it really pushed you into what you've learned and I learned a lot. But it is worth it.

I really love this course. It uses simple English making it easily digestible. In addition, there is a template containing definitions of all the technical terms you learn from day one to remind you just in case you forget. I'm excited about the remaiining courses.

A very good course to begin with for complete beginners, but need better software collaboration to practice for that relevant week until we finish the course deadline (Eg: The SQL software used in the course is a paid version hence can't use same software to learn)

I found this course to be a very great learning experience. The course starts from the very fundamentals so it is easy to grasp & cope up for a person with no coding skills. I would recommend budding Data Analysts to start with this course without a second thought.

the videos were great but sometimes I feel like they're over-explaining some concepts which is fine and nice and I'm only speaking from my perspective, but I do feel some concepts were not needed to explained in great detail, and is only a little bit time-wasting.

This course gives a very sturctured understanding of data analytics, It also clearly differentiates between data science and data analytics. A very interactive course and I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get the foundation right about data analytics,

Excellent , the way to approach a Data Analysis is very different and effective. Though I am naive (new) in this area still nowhere I felt ignore, I give 100 out of 100 to this course. My Goal is to get a Job in Google , Hope this course will lead to my dream job.

Very useful introduction, but the technical part, especially SQL, does not motivate a learner to continue the course since it does not give any visibility on how a real DMS looks like. If this happens in future courses (2-8), then it would be good to mention that.

I enjoy learning and writing I felt a difference here. now I can further my studying, there are certain ways that I can relate computer use to a global environment especially when the information is new, this is a great program and I plan on keeping myself there.
