Yeah Good course. I admit everything that was thought was new to me. Nice to learn new things. Its pretty fast, needs a lot of self practice as you go especially the google sheets part. Self exploration is also needed but they give you the tools to do it. Good Job Google!

I found this course to be very theory intensive, however how it was presented and broken down into collective, and constructive structure was a great help. Also the setting of the assessments, and practical activities made it easier to retain the necessary information.

It was great and very helpful, however I think some of the videos and lectures were quite repetitive. Some lectures talked about the same things talked on a video. Also, some examples for some of the concepts coudl be helpful, for example how a SOW should looklike.

This course was well set out, The bulk of it however doesn't cover questions to ask, it is more of a continuation of the fundamentals of data analytics.

It however is all needed information. Anybody with even slight experience in data could take the fast track.

Ecommerce sites typically use data to drive profits and sales. If you've ever shopped at Amazon you have probably received a product recommendation while visiting the Amazon website or through email. This is an example of a data-driven business decision.
