About the Course

Showcase your Python skills in this Data Engineering Project! This short course is designed to apply your basic Python skills through the implementation of various techniques for gathering and manipulating data. You will take on the role of a Data Engineer by extracting data from multiple sources, and converting the data into specific formats and making it ready for loading into a database for analysis. You will also demonstrate your knowledge of web scraping and utilizing APIs to extract data. By the end of this hands-on project, you will have shown your proficiency with important skills to Extract Transform and Load (ETL) data using an IDE, and of course, Python Programming. Upon completion of this course, you will also have a great new addition to your portfolio! PRE-REQUISITE: **Python for Data Science, AI and Development** course from IBM is a pre-requisite for this project course. Please ensure that before taking this course you have either completed the Python for Data Science, AI and Development course from IBM or have equivalent proficiency in working with Python and data. NOTE: This course is not intended to teach you Python and does not have too much new instructional content. It is intended for you to mostly apply prior Python knowledge....

It was really well done and I found it difficult to complete. But I managed to complete it and it showed me my limitations and what I need to work on before moving onto the next course. Thanks a lot.

A very thorough course, teaches you step by step how to build an ETL process, with lots of videos, readings, very thorough lab assignments, and many hours of practice. Thanks a lot !

Frustratingly obtuse directions. Labs and final project instructions littered with errors and contradicting instructions. This course in no way sets learners up for success.

This is the worst course on Coursera. It is a complete waste of time. If you wanted to learn how to read a file and slice a dataframe in pandas, I can teach you in about 10 minutes. If you wanted to sit through an interactive advertisement for IBM Watson, then I suppose this would be a good course for you.

Nice course with fun and challenging final lab project. The labs really help the conscientious student learn. Great coverage on details of gathering data and ETL processes in Python. ETL is no longer the mystery it once was. Combined with learning from the prerequisite Python for Data Science, AI & Development course, ETL is now something I feel I can jump in, work with, and keep exploring.

Great way to see what you are capable of and able to apply what you have learned so far. (python basics,etc) I decided to give full marks even though the IBM services is not as streamlined as it could be, that's not directly related to the course or the content of the course.

It is basic course, but really overviewed what an ETL process is and its tools. Now I have an idea how to do ETL and I can study more deeply the tools that was mentioned and used in the course. I would like it to be more difficult, but I enjoyed it.

Excellent presentation of the material, and well-chosen tasks in the lab work. I would make the 3rd module, which is optional, mandatory. It's valuable information that is often overlooked when learning the Python language.

Very good course! I got a little lost in the instructions for the final exercise, between the "exchange.csv" and ".json" files, but I managed to finish, thank you very much!

This should be a second level intro course. Everything you need to kick-off in practical Python is taught in this course. The Py packaging was a useful bonus.

Excellent course - I would just remove the AI reading in some of the videos, listening to syntax for 1min straight is painful!
