Very enjoyable and informative. I'm very grateful that Google is putting in such a huge effort to get people trained up in this field. It's evident that more IT specialists are needed around the world and it's fantastic that Google is answering that call by getting people trained up and breaking down barriers at the same time.

good intro course to all things IT. went into areas like customer service and job searching too. As someone who works with sick and angry customers on a daily basis I forget sometimes that other people have not been in those same situations and can use a good primer on what to expect. thank you Google and keep up the good work

Never had any IT background other than using a computer and phone. I never knew the deep down information that makes everything run. Never knew how easy it was to actually build your own computer as long as you have compatible items with one another. If i can take this course sucessfully i think a lot of other people can too.

This course served to renew my interest and excitement into the world of IT. Even though I work with computers, I have not built one for years. This course has piqued my interest and love of IT more than I thought. It has made me realise how much I love to learn and help solve issues relating to anything and everything IT.

I really enjoyed this course. For me, it was a review of things I already knew, but I also learned a few new things. I really appreciated the Troubleshooting and Customer Service modules. It was nice to see that the things I already do are the appropriate things to do when giving IT Support and interacting with end users.

I learned a lot in this course, although it was a little difficult, but I saw that it is part of five parts and I am very interested in delving into and learning from this course to the end because of its importance and the library benefit as a specialist in information technology as it offers an extraordinary level.

Thank you

This course has been an excellent way to set the foundation for learning about computers and how they're connected. It felt like we went at a good speed, and all the information was presented and explained in a manner where assumptions weren't made about prior knowledge. Looking forward to the next classes in the certificate.

The best course I've attended till now and looking forward to complete all the IT support courses as well.I am an Automobile engineering student and currently pursuing my final year in BTech. I've wanted to work for technology and this course provides me the confidence whether i'm suitable for the job role or not.

Thank You!!!

Really good start, and I for one LOVE the fact that you guys put corrections in the video as opposed to just reshooting or editing those mistakes out. Increases comfort level of the student by showing not everyone is perfect, and it also points out those errors and makes the student pay attention to that particular point more

Great course to get your feet with Technical Support Fundamentals. Honestly, the information here is enough for the average lay person. But I want to be more than a lay person. I want to have the knowledge to be a IT support specialist. This is what motivates me to complete the rest of the courses in this certificate program.

In this course, I benefited a lot from the basics in the field of technical support, from the beginning of what consists of computer parts, bits, bytes, networks, troubleshooting and fixing errors, an overview of the Linux system, how programs are installed and deleted in it, and more information in the world of technology .

A great review and introduction into the IT world. It was surprising how much of this I had learned over years of just messing with computers. It's great to truly have a foundation and understanding of how the IT/computer based world operates. I am excited to use this as a stepping stone to advance myself into the IT sector.

Wonderful course, I enjoy every lesson I took here. I express my sincere gratitude to Google Team and Coursera for creating something like this. even though I studied IT as a major this course is more in-depth and precise than what I learn in school. hope to continue with the rest of the courses available in here. Thank you!

The span, efficiency and thoroughness of this initial class was really impressive. I have a good idea of what will be covered in the certificate. I like the idea of going at my own pre-selected pace and the ability to relearn content until proficient. I AM having difficulty verifying my ID (license) via webcam..not sure why.

fantastic learning experience also helped to discover what more less areas i am interested in pursuing to learn in IT. i loved that in the process of watching videos they throw questions at you to keep you on your toes as well as quizzes and lab , the labs i loved the most very fun to do working on soft ware and also coding.

The course indeed covers the fundamentals of IT support, which is enough to initially equip an aspiring IT technical support worker. The supplemental readings, though not required by the course, should be read and studied as well to gain wider and deeper insight into the technical concepts discussed. Great instructors too...
