Should be supplemental after completing the program. A bit overkill.

Completed all 7 courses however i am unable to access to last one

Major issues with audio quaitly in many video lessons. :(

Good for theory but not very practical course.

More technical or real world examples needed.

Great learning experience with COURSERA!

2 star lost for ibm laboratory very slow

As always the audio quality sucks.

Good but no practical work!!

add some practicals,thanks

Not enough hands-on.

Very basic

aaa

kk

The main takeaway from this course was that I could barely understand the instructor in a few of the videos. This made it very difficult to absorb the material on the first and second viewing. Even after rereading the material without the audio it was a little easier but still not 100% understandable. While taking the tests, multiple times I either couldn't remember ever covering the questions or the answers to said questions without extensive searching throughout the course material, if I even found the answer at all. Now the reading material was another frustrating issue entirely. I either was denied access to the material that I was expected to read or had to create one or more accounts in order to be able to access it. This is a very poor implementation to provide course material. This course was advertised to take less than 24 hours to complete, which if you add up all of the videos, reading material and quizzes/tests it takes over 72 hours. I'm thankful that I was able to finish all of it and retake a failed exam after a few hours. I was expecting more but after my experience I don't feel like I've gained very much useful info.

In my optinion the overall quality of the course is not very good. For example on the visual side, the green-screen capture of the presenting person has artifacts is not well lit. Also the slides have way too much content, so they are not easy to read. In many parts there are just links to materials on other webpages. There are some interesting insights, like a real-life demo of an incident response process. But overall, it's too much reading and too boring presentations for such an interesting topic.

Not overly thrilled with this section. The forensics is fascinating, however, the link for the forensics lab is broken and couldn't get in touch with anyone about it. The second article after the forensics lab also did not direct me to the right article. In the incident response lab, many of the activities you are supposed to walk through don't work so you are unable to finish some of the interactive labs.

Content is interesting for beginners but it is definitely not challenging.

There are several broken links in the course and has recycled content/repeated information that can be quite obvious at times.

Finally, no one will ask you about the history of scripting languages while you're doing incident response and forensic investigations. That section should have been added as an appendix.

Raul was easily the best presenter, but the audio cutting out so much made him hard to follow. The other presenters clearly reading from scripts were also difficult to follow, but for a different reason: I was easily distracted from the monotonous drone by pretty much anything in my environment, especially by the female presenter.

There's solid information but the organization, consistency, and presentation are terrible. It's not a cohesive course as much as it's a collection of pre-existing things IBM already had placed end-to-end to try and fit the purpose.

Very little practical work and like the rest of the professional certificate there are only videos that are quite boring and quizzes. Python is introduced but no content on using it for cybersecurity - only a link to a blog post.

Need to improve on the content and the trainers. This topic could have been very intersting, but the trainers were not good. The way they spoke, the tone, they themselves didnt seem interested.

It seams that the course is made from other courses and talks. The audio and video is not well edited, sometimes not comprehensible and lacks of consistency.

I found this difficult, the exercises in particular.

This entire specialization, as far as I have completed, is just people reading off powerpoints and directing you towards other's content. If you are already in a similar field or have a degree in it, it probablywould be of use. If you are just starting out, this course is utterly useless and smells like a cashgrab.

I have not written code nor do they teach you actual practical skills that will get through the job interview. I am finishing this only because they already took my money.
