Una introducción muy completa en lo que a Análisis de datos se refiere, si bien no se profundiza en temas técnicos, si se otorga una visión general bastante útil.

Not a fan of the peer review. The first time I submitted the assignment, I had all the points/answers laid out in detail but the reviewer still docked points.

Kept losing focus through some videos since it got monotonous at one time I'll also blame my short attention span. Introduce more case studies, they help alot.

Great course, but poor peer review. Grading varies wildly depending on your review, and because of that people copy and paste answers after initial submisison

A lot of definitions that are probably more relevant to those early or pre-career. But I can see the value to those without any corporate experience.
