Great introduction into the remaining courses. I love that there are different learning methods, ie, audio and reading and that there are quizzes at the end of each to help you digest the information.

I think this is a great start for anyone who is starting from absolute zero. I think that since I've been toying with the idea of getting into Cybersecurity for 2 years now, it was a great refresher!

I'm really interested in learning with Google. This is the first lesson I've ever done with this particular school though. Let's see, from first impression, I admit the website looks rough and I'm nervous to navigate through. Its layouts are scattered and I can't get a good focus. I had to watch the videos over again and again before I could remember all of them. For someone trying to learn, this may be a setback. You should always plan your lessons out so that they are even, sequential, and easy to learn, I plan to keep learning with this program so I hope the other lessons will improve. I also hope the material is worth learning, not under training in other words or less than an employee is looking for. Now let's see how my ratings change as I continue along with my lessons.

Te da buena información, pero te cuenta muchas cosas que solo las ves por encima, 4 semanas para una información que se podría ver en 4 videos de 20 minutos en 4 días. Sé que se puede avanzar las tareas y hacerlo en menos de 4 semanas pero hay muchas tareas que no les veo provecho y te hacen perder el tiempo sin aprendizaje.

Los tests los veo muy intuitivos y repetitivos, siempre indicen en los 4 puntos principales de la semana que son el 20% de los contenidos de la semana, el resto es relleno y no te cae ni una pregunta. Eso sí, se ajustan muy bien a la dificultad del curso, son fáciles.

When it comes to security there should not be in ANY ambiguity and the wording has to be precise. For example about cloud security there are 2 parties mentioned 'service provider' and organisations! 'service provider' is an organisation. This course is meant to be for individuals with no prior experience... it should have been 'service providers' and 'service consumers' When security related material is not clear and ambiguous the understand would be inconsistent.
