Very good actually. The course is structured very well for beginners especially. I have given it 4 stars because the Lookup functions can be explained more clearly. I didn't understand the lookup function even after seeing it 2 times. So I had to rely on some other source like youtube to get a clear idea. So, Overall I can say it's a very good and well-structured course for beginners who want to get into data analysis or for anyone who wants to learn Excel.

This was great to start building basic and foundational skills in Excel! The provided learning materials were easy to understand and when there were more confusing things I could just rewatch and reread to grasp it better. Sometimes my mind wandered during the videos or I wasn't able to follow along with the labs but I just replayed them and kept trying until I got it down. Very good course for a beginner like me!

Overall, I do appreciate being able to learn how to apply Excel in Data Analysis. There are some things that could truly improve the course. On some of the videos, it was difficult to watch the screens to see the specific steps needed, and in at least one case, the spreadsheet we needed was available on the NEXT class. It would be helpful to have the files available within each week's classes.

Very informative, easy to follow, and covers a lot of information. My only complaint is that I feel it doesn't offer a whole lot of hands-on practice and application of the information. The labs provide very detailed information and step by step instruction, but I would prefer to achieve similar results based on my own understanding of the content rather than following the steps given.

Occasionally, the instructions for the labs were difficult to follow and I think there were a couple times when they wanted me to do something that wasn't compatible with my version of the program. But overall it was a good amount of new topics covered while not being too advanced to follow. would recommend.

Very nice! but i think the excel part was a bit too basic. Also the IBM Cognos was too short because this looks like a very elaborate and effective platform. Morever, the IBM Cognos videos aren't clear and comprehensive as the rest of the course. But all in all, i'm satisfied :)

The peer review portion for the final assignment is not the best. Given what the assignment was, it might've been better reviewed by instructors. Or, if not feasible, it should be easier to challenge grades, or reviewers should be made to explain their grading choices.

Course was well structured, videos were clear and informative, instructions for final project were very clear. I learned quite a lot and I think this is a great course for people with no experience in excel who want to grasp its capabilities for basic data analysis.

While this curse has been great at helping me learn the basics and few advanced steps in excel, i truly believe that the course needs to be abit updated specially the quiz as a couple of the answer in quiz were different than the ones given by the mentors.

Good starting point and great labs and data for you to toy with. However, most of what we study is quite easy and can be easily found on Youtube, which is free. Still, the materials provided are much better than what you will find on a free platfrom.

Videos were easy to follow and assignments were also a good test of our knowledge. Just wished the Excel templates used in the videos were shared with course participants ahead of time, so that we can practise along with the videos.

The peer review is the only one I am not happy with when the answer is correct the reviwer has marked it partially right. It looks like they havent gone through the review process properlly this is the second time this happened.

It was very informative and helpful, but it was not Mac friendly. I had to look through several external resources to figure out what keyboard shortcuts could be used in place of the Windows shortcuts listed.

I was pretty familiar with excel already, but this class definitely taught me some new tricks that I wasn't using. There was a breif lesson on Pivot, but I felt like that portion went really quick.

Great and easy to follow along. The final assignment works with a too simple and unrealistic data set. I would prefer the final assignment to be a bit more challenging and uses a real world data set.

Really good and useful course to get more familiar with Excel. I wish there was better feedback to/from peers on the last assignment and how to grade... But that is just a minor opinion of mine :)

Great introduction of basic excel concepts and how they can be used. The final project was simple and straight forward. I had some excel knowledge but this course taught be many more excel tools.

I would like to say Thanks a lot to Coursera to provide me such assistance to grow my career. This is a wonderful skill creating and development course. This help me a lot to learn a new skill.

Very content with skills I learnt. However, some sections are not well explained and it seemed like the instructor was just going through them. For instance when teaching about "Flash Fill".

I use excel often at my work so I though this course was going to be extremely boring and useless, but I learned a few things at the end, and shortcuts that I now use to make my work easier.

Very basic. For experienced or even intermediate Excel users, this course can be completed quickly and is a good review of some of Excel's more basic but sometimes "forgotten" functions

Ce cours est vraiment très interressant. Il m'a permis de vraiment redécouvrir Excell. Très fluide et pratique, c'est un cours facile à comprendre. J'ai beaucoup apprécier ce cours

The whole course was good also included the latest excel analysis functions, but for the majority course it was made couple of years ago, my suggestion to make a updated course.

VLOOKUP is a relatively complex feature to understand. Some more detailed examples could have been added so that students felt comfortable about using it in the real world.

This is the course where you can learn more things which is used in analyzing data. The best is in this course is hands on practice is provided, Thanks Coursera and IBM
