Indeed, this is a very valuable course. Here, from the history of the computer, hardware software and how to do computer issue troubleshooting and customer care were clearly explained. Also, this is a valuable course, which facilitated joining several quiz questions and lab tests. Thank you very much.

I guess this course gives an overall idea about the computer science background and its possibilities. I would strongly suggest this course who wanted to learn about the computer or IT. I am in the 4th year of my college but I find this really interesting, I hope others may find this interesting also.

Amazing course with amazing teachers. Everyone entering the world of IT should definately go this route as it opens up the world of IT in a short span of time. People with no knowledge of IT will come out with the bare basic knowledge of IT and this will help them grow in knowledge and their career.

Very interesting concept, I really enjoyed doing this course. The deadlines prevented me from procrastinating, the in-video popup questions were amazing, because it reminds me to pay attention to the course content and not get distracted. I love the idea of it and the content was delivered perfectly.

It's my first ever online course. I had the opportunity to renew my fundamental IT knowledge. Instructors were good and their speech is so clear and understandable even I am not a native speaker.

I knew some of the information, but I find this course very valuable in helping a person learn even more useful information to work in the IT profession or just help an individual learn the fundamentals to building their own computer/network and installing and maintaining different operating systems.

This course covers the basics to give you an elementary understanding of what an IT technical support specialist needs to know. It isn't as detailed and in-depth as CompTIA A+ in regards to the IT hardware side of things but it is a great starting ground for those looking to learn the basics of IT.

Apesar de ser un curso basico, hay cosas que obviamos por saberlo de forma empirica, pero nos ayudan a reforzar y tener el conocimiento de una forma mas adecuada a lo que ya sabemos.

el apartado sobre la atencion al cliente esta explicada de una forma muy objetiva y que nadie me la habia hecho saber.

Really good introduction to the technical support world. Some topics covered were really basic for me but I would imagine it needs to be approachable to people without any knowledge in IT. Really enjoyed the personal stories from Google team - I would love to be one of them in your future courses :)

This is an excellent stepping off point into the role of an IT Specialist.

I found the history, and technology terminology and the presentation of all this course material excellent.

I highly recommend this to anyone looking to obtain an education in IT without paying a fortune for college classes.

Awesome course, being new to this field comming in with no experience besides my own personal experience dealing with computers I can say I've learned alot from this course let alone continuing my journey to earn the rest of the certifications and specializations offered though google and much more!

Some information may feel basic if you have a background in tech, but it's a great way to make sure you don't have any holes in your knowledge before diving in further. And if you don't have experience working in tech, this provides a great overview of most of the things you are likely to encounter.

The course was fascinating, the instructors were professional and focused, assignments were flexible but a bit slow, it concentrated on both empirical and theoretical but the theoretical part was a bit larger.

I am very thankful for being granted such an awesome opportunity by Google.keep up Google.
