It was very nice that at this time in my life (46 years old), very old for the world of IT, I was able to learn the basis of IT from people that most of them could be have my age. Very informative and easy to digest even topics that seemed hard to grasp at the beginning.

Course is awesome and easy to understand. I had issues in the labs always. Getting connecting to the labs takes 1-2 hours and assignment will be less than 15 min. It really takes up the huge amount of time when a person is a full time working with other house hold duties

Detailed and explicit about what it teaches and where it needs to be. It is also consciously succinct where the information is not yet relevant or needed. The information is clear, and the people delivering this information are, professional, genuine, and nice about it.

I believe that this course made it as easy as possible for me to understand how computers actually operate and perform computations in their own language and how I can actually interact with them and perform basic fixes when they fail to operate as we desire them to do.

Such a great course to get into IT, I really loved the enthusiasm of the instructors, the quality of the material an everything about it. I was already quite familiarized with IT, but I think that for a complete begineer, it may be difficult to understand every concept.

I really enjoyed the course the videos were short and to the point, I did like the animations and visual teachings those helped me. I would recommend for the labs perhaps a video about the process or more clear instructions, other than that I really enjoyed this course!

I find it great that google has implemented a series of course to help people enter IT world. 4 year college degrees have become out of reach for a fair amount of people and it has created a divide. This is definitely something anybody would be able to access and learn.

This course is very informative. It actually teaches you concept of computer, the operation and its evolution from the scratch. The course offering is well laid out and interesting, you just will want to read the next slide. I look forward to completing the next module!

Este curso me gusto mucho, ya que se hizo parte, de soporte tanto escrito como en ejercicios prácticos y es lo que me gusta mas. aparte de hacer un mejor panorama de como solucionar un problema o mejor dicho como llegar a darle al cliente una solución adecuada y rápida.

Very good quality and nice the i can go at my own pace. very interesting and well made videos and tutorials, even though sometimes the remote access assignments required me to use CTRL+ALT+DEL, to go back and forth between the test and the directions, but overall great.

Friendly introduction onto a breath aspect of IT. But I feel there's a need to make self readings or research to understand the topics better, at the level I'm comfortable with cause the readings given can be quite a jump (in terms of knowledge level) from the videos :)

An excellent introduction to a wide range of basic aspects of computing. The instructors use easily understandable examples. The whole breadth of computing is explained in a way that captures the mind of any interested mind: whether an advanced or a novel computer user.

Great core course that should be applied to anyone, not just IT support workers. This content is what I basically have been looking for for years. Thanks Google for the great styling, modeling and way of conveying information for retention. World class standard indeed.

This course has become my favorite, this course is way better than IBM technical support fundamentals. It has shown me so much what I needed to learn and this was the perfect decision I've ever made. I would recommend this course to anyone who's looking to get into IT.
