I really enjoyed the course it was very insightful yet clear and easy to understand. I think the actual online computer practice was vital to putting the pieces together. I really enjoyed it and I will continue the program.

I already knew most of this stuff, so this course was easy for me. But, there was enough that I didn't know to make it interesting. This is great beginner information, about the background of computing, and how it all works.

Breaks complicated realities into small digestible pieces of information so that even those that are unfamiliar with computers and computer systems can gain insight and knowledge into the complex nature of the digital world.

The way they have this course set up makes it very easy to learn and to finish on your own time. I love the way the certificate is broken down into sections that are 5-8 weeks at a time, giving myself small goals to achieve.

If I could give this course 4.5 stars I would, only for the fact that the Operating Systems section moved a bit quick to keep up. Otherwise everything was easily presented and explained, and I enjoyed learning more about IT.

Very informative for me. I would recommend this course to anyone that does not have any prior experience with IT. I have learned a lot and the lab work was my favorite part because it was hands on. Google did an amazing job.

Fue un reto para mí, porque la tecnología no es algo a lo que estoy acostumbrano, no más allá del uso diario. Creo que aprendí muchas cosas interesantes y estoy dispuesta a seguir esforzandome para conocer más de estos temas

Spectacularly covers the basics of all careers in the IT field. Prepares newcomers to computers about the fundamentals in very easy to understand video assignments, and introduces how coursera sets up the rest of the course.

This course is an excellent introduction to technical support. Even though I've worked in Technical Support for years, this course helped me isolate the areas where my awareness is thinner. I look forward to the next course.

The course is excellent, addresses the content in a didactic and concise way. It's definitely not a monotonous course, the content is interactive with forums in each module and has hands-on exercises using virtual machines.

I loved the course! I was familiar with some of the topics, but the questions were detailed enough that I needed to do a deeper dive. New topics were clearly explained in a way that I retained information easily. Thank you!
