This gives a great foundation for Data Analytics. The instructors do skim over everything and I would have liked more detail but most of what I wanted to find out more about I was able to find online.

Great material with great explanations! It answered a lot of my questions and reassured me that it is ok not to have to know everything going into a job. I always feel like I should know more or that I have "imposter syndrome". I look forward to learning more from these courses and getting started on my new career adventure!

The course was such a smooth flowing experience. It didn't feel like it was like any other course, with huge amount of information stuffed without us able to retain most of it, but the course was designed in such a beautiful way that we were able to grasp and apply all the concepts discussed. Looking forward to learning more!

So far, so good. I have completed some courses previosuly working with SQL but the first course in this program has helped to ground my understanding of data analysis, the data life cycle and the six key steps a data analyst follows. It has also helped me to think about where I use data in real life and day-to-day situations.

I was exposed to Data driven decision making, Spreadsheet, SQL and Data Visualization. I was equally introduced to Data analytics tools and visualizations tools such as Tableau, Excel, SQL and Google sheet. I also learn the differences between Qualitative and Quantitative Data and the six phases of Data analysis to name few.

Me gusto mucho el curso, aunque son cosas básicas, te abre mucho el panorama sobre que puedes desempeñarte en el ambito profecional. En particular me gusto porque tenia una idea sobre a que se dedicaba un analista de datos y este curso hizo que me gustara más la idea, creo que ya se en que me especializare. Gracias por todo.

Awesome course I am so excited to keep learning. One thing I would love to see is maybe a overview notes sheet that you could maybe download covering the important or high notes if you will. It would make a nice addition to my notes and I wouldn't have to type as much while watching the viedos so I wouldn't miss anything.

It is quite good for everyone who is not familiar with the term data analysis in depth.

IT IS A REALLY GOOD CURSE. IT taught me basics for data analysis and now im in 3rd course out of 8 courses and i find 1st course releavant in every 8 course and this course should not be skipped. if you skip this course it will be same as a good body structure of a building with a bad base which can be demolished easily.
