I just finished the 2nd Course in the Google Data Analyst course - even though I have experience in the field, this course reminded of areas that I should focus on and work to strengthen my skills in.

Everything was perfect but some questions on the practice and graded quizzes were tricky. The answers conflicted from the point of view side so it might need a better explanation for the right answer.

Good introduction into important topics that one would face in the Corporate world, I would like to see more of how to deal with bosses that don't understand the timelines and that are pushy to get their asks completed.

This course discusses the basics of spreadsheets and communicating not just with the stakeholders but with everyone who is involved in a project. This is the 2nd course in Google Data Analytics so don't expect too much.

The content was great but it made me redo the week challenges even though I had a already done them. Adding on, I have already completed everything in the Weeks but it is not giving me check marks for week 1 or week 2.

Please pay attention to this particular course, I think it is the backbone of analytics because without asking the right question, one cannot identify the problem to be solved. Thanks Google for this insightful course!

it was a good course. The videos were an excellent source but they were too many. i think more hands on approach would have been better for me. Overall, I really liked the course and would recommend it to others.

I like the fact that they introduced us to the kind of things we should expect to do as junior analysts. its definitely a beginner course but its perfect for those who have not worked in the industry to get started
