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.

This training has been incredibly helpful to me. Even though the term or precise stage is unclear, I have been working as a data analyst for a while. After taking this course, I feel really competent.

Thank you to Google for making the course available. It's very helpful, well-structured and has a step-by-step framework to kick off from ground zero with iterative resources to refresh what has been learned in the previous weeks, reinforcing familiarisation with learning materials.

I found this first course to not only help me operate better in my current position but it has allowed me to approach data in a different way altogether. I felt this course had an easy to understand approach and I look forward to everything I learn in the rest of this certification!

As a course, Data Analysis is very complete. It gives a glimpse of the potential of the data. And it enhances personal skills, if they are properly reflected upon. I was also struck by the idea of equity or an idea of justice, it could be a transversal idea, also in decision-making.

Being basically new to data analysis, this course has been incredibly informative and has given me all the information to decide whether or not data analysis is for me. The answer to the previous sentence is a resounding yes, I am in hook line and sinker. Bring on the next course.

The first course is pretty theoretical, which might be different from many people's expectations. However, I recommend this course because I find it very useful to have an overview of data analytics, help me to think more analytically, and apply some of the skills in my daily life.

An excellent introduction to data analytics. I have no programming knowledge whatsoever or a computer background, and this made me feel confident and reassure in what I will be doing. Would highly recommend for anyone regardless of learning level -- Tony is a fantastic instructor!

I found the course super motivating except the discussion prompts, I checked the forums and lot of people actually post useless comments, so I ended up skipping all the prompts (I did see a few smart and interesting posts).

A big thank you to everyone who made this course possible!

I couldn't believe I was able to complete a course, things had been rough and I thought I won't be able to do anything right. The course got me hooked and I can feel a little better about myself now, a very detailed course with crystal clear explanation. Thank you for teaching me!

For a foundation to the course, it is well detailed. The process balnces video and reading sections. I love the pop quiz as this helps you to focus and listen to every aspect of the course. The discussion forums and the learning are great to help share ideas and learn from others.

Before this course I knew that Data Analysis is about Excel, SQL, R, Python and Tableau. After completing this first course my misconception cleared. Now I have started believing that data is a living thing. Looking forward to complete all rest of the courses of Google Analytics.
