I nice course could use a bit more details in the lab parts to further explain the containerization and a bit more details on OpenShift is required . Overall a really interesting course yet again.

A good introduction to Docker, Kubernetes and OpenShift. I really enjoyed the hand-on labs. They're an efficient way to understand how abstract concepts can be applied.

It was a good beginner's course, for my next level I would like a little bit more hands-on.

Had high hopes for this course, but it is NOT worth it. Along with a few other issues the lab environment is unbearable.
The information in the instructional portion is great and easy to follow along to, but I've run into multiple issues with the lab environment including:
- Running into connection errors,
-Not given proper guidance on replacement criteria (for example it will say something along the lines of "input <$YOUR_ACCOUNTNAME>" in which case you don't know if you're supposed to use <ACCOUNT_NAME>, ACCOUNT_NAME, or $ACCOUNT_NAME and have to play around with multiple inputs before getting the right one
- Most frustrating was not being able to troubleshoot. Some connection issues can be resolved by logging out and clearing cache according to the forums, however I was physically unable to logout as the lab environment stalled for 15 minutes before I gave up.
Additionally, you will NOT receive feedback on incorrect quiz answers so you'll be left not knowing why you were wrong and have to research answers on your own.
After completing a few weeks of assignments I will not be finishing the course as it is not proving to be worth it.

The AI-generated videos were pretty terrible for this course. Since this course was one of the first where I actually didn't know any of the material going into the course, I found it much more difficult to follow along with the videos than some of the previous courses. The labs for Week 2 and Week 3 didn't work correctly for me, even though I was following the instructions exactly. The labs for this course, in general, felt very "copy-paste", and I don't think there were enough opportunities for practicing skills used in the labs (i.e. repetition). I felt like I learned practically nothing from this course.

Course is well-structured, but:
- It is very basic. We are only touching some k8s concepts
- Video are way too abstract. No-one is showing you how this theory could be applied, just some general concept that you can't get idea of. Also it is just a written text, so robot is reading it.
- Hand-ons are very basic too. Smth like 'we provide all of the configuration for you, just run kubectl apply'
- Final assessment is very basic also

The content has a few ordering issues and some of it wasn't all that great. Not a lot of depth is covered, and, due to that lack of depth, some of the assignments and content choices do not feel consistent. In spite of those issues, I would probably have rated this 4 stars if not for the soulless, robotic lecture voice. If every class in the world was taught in that voice, we might all freely choose ignorance.

The information provided only gives a superficial overview of the topics and cannot fully help in understanding them. Additionally, a lack of real-world problems that can be solved using Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift is present.

Dense, boring and of little utility. Just a readout of terms without proper explanations.

Not so beginner friendly, this course is just like reading a book.

The IBM cloud account creation did not work. The support had to do it manually. The outcome was an account, which was not authorised to create a namespace, which was one of the first instructions in a lab. I hope support will fix this.
EDIT: Support did not fix the account, they created the namespace manually and got back to me, of course the next step failed immediately as I was no able to create a Natural Language Understandin serive required for the final exam. A staff member in the discussion forum replied and claimed I could use a pay-as-you-go account even though a working trial account was part of the course I am paying for. This is literally the worst customer experience I ever whitnessed.

The course requires you to create a free account from cloud.ibm.com but due to a change in IBM policy, you can't do that anymore. You need to enter your credit card and create a non-free account.
Anyway, I think it is ok to pay some amount and create my own account to complete this course. But no success, the site charged an amount from my credit card while giving an error on the welcome page. I gave up and took another course.
As the information in the course is outdated, I am dissappointed.

One of the worst courses I ever had. 1) Information is given poorly 2) The videos do not have any sense because most of them are just voiced text with pictures without describing things in an understandable way 3) The assignments it is just copy/paste 4) The platforms are bugged 4) Many people complain about the quality of the materials, but I haven't even seen detailed answers and plans or even promises to change it. In summary i think it is a shame for IBM to have this course.

It didn't meet my expectations. On the one hand, the videos are slides with the voice of an AI, where concepts are poured out without deep explanations. On the other hand, tasks consist of executing given commands, making some changes, and seeing the results. It is not a suitable course for deploying containers in real-life jobs.

Minimal efforts are put while creating the whole course. All I heard was a robotic voice going over all concepts recklessly. I don't think this is a very digestible content and I still don't feel very confident applying the concepts I learned. Disappointed by IBM..

This is not a course. It's just a demo to show that Docker is good! You will learn nothing from a narrator who I don't know if they are human or AI. Just know that without any emotion, she just reads a script, and it's not an educational course! Shame on IBM.
