Clear, concise, organized, and informative! I was not only excited to go through the content, but I also fought the urge to skim through sections I thought I knew. Luckily, this enabled me to reintroduce myself to the magic that is technology! I am excited to continue and can't wait for the next course.

The course is very entry level friendly, which is super important for folks even with experience! This course helped fill in some blanks regarding the history of networking, as well as teaching me that binary isn't as complicated as I originally thought it was. Definitely enjoying this course so far.

I enjoyed learning about the basics of computers: the history, hardware, software, a small bit of networking, troubleshooting, and your job as a IT support specialist. A lot of this knowledge is a refresher but it is always good to relearn and review what you know especially as technology is advancing.

I love taking this first module. I learn a lot of new things. The videos were short which is always very nice for people like me who suffer from ADHD. Week Number 6 was more about soft skills, so unless you are a complete beginner when it comes to it, I'd suggest skipping it and do the quizzes instead.

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.

Even thouogh I found this course to be very much a review of knowledge I already knew with excption to the coursework involving linux it was presented in such a way that it made the learing process very easy. If you or anyone you know is interested in a carrer in IT this course is the right way to go.

This course gives a good overview of IT support fundamentals. It touches on the framework that is the structure of the IT profession. With labs so that you can put the things you learn into practice and scenarios that are realistic, you will learn how to not only solve problems but how to help people.

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.

I have no complaint about this course. It was more than I expected. the Videos and the scrip makes it easy to go back and make sure you understand the material. I feel very confidant about the level of information I receive. I am looking forward to take the next course. Thank Google and courser.

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.

For beginners it's great to be able to get your feet wet and learn some of the basics in order to pursue a career in the IT field. It's at your own pace and you don't feel overwhelmed while taking this course which is extremely important for someone like me who struggles with balancing work and life.

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. Looking forward to continuing this learning journey with this fabulous course provider to my expectation.

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.
