Solid "big picture" refresher course before getting into the more technical stuff I'm sure down the road, even for folks with backgrounds in math and science but haven't used it years (okay, decades).

I feel empowered, Thank you for the opportunity.

I am a Data Scientist but I am not practicing because I don't feel that my knowledge was proficient. This course give me the baseline I was lacking.

A good start for anyone who want to get into analytics. It is a basic course and not specialization. After this you will get the gist of Data Analytics and after that other specialization courses will come in hand. If you already in this field than this is not for you but if you are new in this than this is a best start.

Es una gran introducción al mundo del análisis de datos que te das una panorama general sobre lo que esperas al convertirte en analista de datos, aclara las expectativas y da fundamentos teóricos solidos para entender el papel que esperas desenvolver al desarrollar y poner en practica las habilidades que vas a adquirir.

I've been looking at data analysis and how to make it fair. I've learned about techniques like oversampling and using all available data to include everyone. I also see the importance of managing resources and doing analysis from start to finish. Overall, I’m enjoying learning about making data analysis fair and useful.

I think that the Foundations: Data, Data, Everywhere course was of great help to organize all those concepts and knowledge that encompass the role of data analyst. The knowledge of the tools, skills, way of thinking of a data analyst increased my love and interest in data due to the importance it has in today's society.

Nobody has been able to teach me and ive always truggled to focus in college etc. Learning this way is a breath of fresh air no pressure just relaxed. I feel learning this way i can actually take the information in because of those factors. I am thrilled and cannot wait to start all of the other sections on this course.

I found this course a refresher and an eye opener all at the same time. I really enjoy that I can set my own pace, go back and review and re-watch all of the material at my leisure. It was a lot on information to digest, but very well presented without a lot of the technical speak to bog it down. A great first step.

This course was great. It had a good mix of video, readings and cases to make it interesting. I learned new concepts and look forward to the next course! I loved that the videos were also transcripted - it made note taking quicker and the online practice coach! And I really liked the main video presenter Tony. Thanks!

This course is beautifully structured and the assignments really are relevant as well as brushing up all the concepts that are previously discussed. The very first course from a set of 8 courses has build an enormous confidence within me and I feel pumped to complete the entire course with same proclivity and gusto.

I really enjoyed the way all the introductory content was delivered

Great pace, many examples where data analysis are used, refences and stories about data analysts and their experiences. Nice way to start the course for begginers, or people that just like me needed a calm refresher to some concepts seen a lifetime ago.

The above course is very much informative for beginners. The course content are explained in the simplest manner possible. Also, the test part is very interactive and really 'test' your holds on the concepts. Overall it's a must-do course for beginners who aims to understand basics of data analysis. Highly recommended.

El curso es introductorio y basico dentro del anlásis de datos. Considero que es un buen lugar para empezar a aprender.

Es un poco repetitivo y para quienes tenemos conocimientos de Excel y SQL hay videos que se vuelven un poco aburridos. Pero mas alla de esto me encanto como esta organizado y la dinamica que proponen.

Excellent, one of the best so far. I really love the structure of the lessons and the fact that you get to learn from top notch professionals.

Even if I have been playing with numbers for over 8 years on a professional scale, I still got to learn quite a lot, and also learn some things about myself that I did not know.

i think i notice a bias in this last review. I am asking myself if puting the "rate this course" above the fifth start may actually influence people to give 5 stars to the course. I would really like to conduct this research. But i trully enjoyed the course so i am giving 5 stars out of bias. Thanks (smiling smiley)

Love it! Wish my varsity courses were presented in such a way. Taking Notes, Recap Notes, Review Video Scripts and Retry when you not happy with your marks. It has a dynamic to it that lets you focus on content instead of trying to manage your material. The content is excellent and very relevant. Thank you, thank you!

This course is very helpful to me as it takes me from no experience to understand more about data analytics. All the contents and materials are well prepared (in Microsoft format and Google format) for downloading easily. Thank you Tony - program manager for creating such a wonderful program with useful instructions.

I love this google course thus far. I like interacting with the links & spreadshets that we are able to download. I like that we canobserve and learn off of the spreadsheets & resources provided to us. I like that we can go at our own pace. I love that our first instructor took his time and personalized each lesson.
