I've gained more skills and knowledge since day 1 when I started this course - I've some knowledge from before but not all the understanding about Data Analyst role but now is more clear and I liked, even the course was not easy, especially R where I found some challenges but after all was very interesting. My mind is now more open to understand how analysts dig into the data and get results and recommend changes. I'm glad to be able to complete this course and will see if there is something else I would be interested to learn more now that we need to improve skills to not be left behind with this technology changing so fast. Thank you Google, Thank you Coursera!

I absolutely love the diversity in the presenters for each of these courses in the program. The presenters were very knowledgeable but were excellent in breaking down the information in a beginner-friendly manner. There was so much content, but possible to learn and understand. I really loved the interactive lessons that gave the learner the plenty opportunity to practice the new content within each lesson. I really enjoyed this program that helped me to learn what I needed to learn without feeling overwhelmed. It was also extremely helpful that the design of the new information was always presented in a manner that real-world applications.

This is an exceptional course that will keep you constantly motivated to want to learn more. The courses are design in a very scalable and are business focus and practical at the same time. The presenters are seasoned experts with thorough practical understanding of the courses and sincere appreciation for the challenges newbies are most likely to face when learning new languages. I bet you will find their enthusiams contagious - even through the video! Use case explanations on how to handle Big data and work efficiently are provided - as if you are on the Job - your confidence and expertise will improve exponentially.

This course is good although it was basic for me as I have good work experience, not as a Data Analyst, but working in a technical support call center. I loved that it's very connected to the job market and has videos on networking and creating your online presence and portfolio. I didn't like the parts that teach technical material though. There are a lot of videos and texts to read while I think that technical material should be learned by doing and by repetition. I also did a Python course with datacamp which teaches this part of the material much better in my opinion.

I went into the capstone project a bit skeptical, not expecting too much, but it was honestly quite helpful at utilizing most of the things we'd learned and forcing me to learn many new things. Not to mention it's the first chance to figure out what your start-to-finish process might be for a real analytics project. Also, all the complementary tools and advice that the certification, and this course in particular, provide to help in actually landing an analytics job are more than I ever expected and they raise my confidence that I can actually get one in the near future.

A very comprehensive course, especially good for beginners into the world of data analytics! There is never enough time to cover everything, so I would suggest if you're interested in data analytics, pair this course with some other courses in applying basic statistics in R/Python and taking a course in using Python (R is only covered). The need to be fluent in multiple languages, familiar with statistical concepts and different data visualisation approaches will be something you'll come across more frequently in your data analytics career journey.

In today's tech-driven era, probability remains invaluable for guiding decisions in various domains, including internships and placement drives. Assessing the likelihood of securing positions or opportunities enables students and professionals to make informed choices, optimizing their chances of success. Whether relying on objective data such as past placement trends or subjective factors like personal strengths and preferences, probability aids in navigating career paths effectively, ensuring alignment with individual goals and market dynamics.

I completed this 8 course data analytics program primarily intended for Junior Data Analyst. I was curious how program was setup and what skills were taught, preparing for a career within data analytics. The program is well designed around keywords of Ask, Prepare, Process, Analyze, Share and Act and would gladly recommend it as a stepping stone into the field of analytics. Reflecting from senior experience level, I was still able to pick up new perspectives and good knowledge sources which complement my current skillset.

Excelente curso. !!!

El caso de estudio es una verdadera aventura!!! Manejar una data de mas de 5 millones de datos para obtener información detallada de cada pregunta semilla que acompañó a la interrogante de negocios, es algo que supera la imaginación. Los datos comienzan a contar una historia y a dar respuesta a necesidades de los interesados y al problema de negocio. En ese transitar, los datos comienzan a transformarse en tablas, indicadores, gráficos con información valiosa para la toma de decisiones. Lo recomiendo.

10/10! I've made a good decision to enroll in this program. The capstone was really a good way for me to summarize the things I have learned from this course and apply the skills I've acquired. I was that I was given options on how to do the case study whether I wanted a ready dataset or choose a topic I am interested in. I have immersed myself in the course, and I was able to grow and see points for improvement when I engage in the data analysis process. A very well-crafted course! Thank you so much for your hard work!

This course allowed me to apply everything I've learned and go through the Google Data Analyst framework of Ask, Prepare, Process, Analyze, Share, and Act. It's a practical activity that allowed me to use various skills from Business Scoping, Preparing Data, Processing and Transforming Data, Performing Analysis for Trends and Insights, Creating a Story to Share the Findings, and finally, Provide Recommendations for Actions. It's a sweet combination of practical, systems thinking, and technical skills. Highly Recommended.

This is a great course...It has definitely driven me to take my professional growth very seriously.

I am now more aware and intentional about my career, the path is not completely clear but at least I feel like I am one step closer to getting there. A big thank you to the Google and Coursera Teams for working together to make this available to the world. I am grateful to have been a part of this. I hope to work on the second case study when I have some free time. Thank you all once again. I believe it was worth it.

Google's Data Analyst Certificate on Coursera is a great way to learn the basics of data analysis. The course is broken down into six sections: Data Collection and Storage, Data Processing and Analysis, Data Vizualization, Data Interpretation, and Communication. Each section contains several lectures and quizzes. The lectures are interesting and informative, and the quizzes help to reinforce the material. The course is thorough and well-organized, and it provides a solid foundation for further study in this field.

One of the most rewarding educational experiences of my life has been becoming a certified and degreed Data Scientist. The Capstone Case Study has been completed. I plan to return to Columbia University in the Spring of 2024 to pursue an undergraduate degree in Information Science. By then, I will have completed my Coursera Data Science Certification. Besides Agile Coaching, Business Analysis, and Project Management, I can focus on building my consulting practice around Data Science, AI, and Data Analytics.

IT is now i feel like i am a data analyst. At first it was like a child who lost her parents and does not know how to survive. I was lost with no one to guide me. I asked for help from people around me that i thought should know but no one could help. me . Then i prayed and God answered my prayer. Somehow i made it and it has helped to grow. I believe i can be a good data analyst. Capstone help me to grow. Data anal ytics is very interesting and enjoyable.. It also make you a deeper person.

I cannot thank Google and Coursera enough for making this amazing Professional Certificate. Not only did the course guide me through the skills needed for becoming a Data Analyst but also gave a broader view of all the other roles linked to this Job profile. From guidance for building portfolio to getting ready for job interviews. I will treasure all the knowledge and experience gained through this course. And also huge thanks to the googlers who took their time in making and presenting the videos.

The Google Data Analytics professional certificate has opened my eyes to the field of data analytics, something I was completely ignorant to.

I really enjoyed the enthusiasm of the lecturers, and the wide range of learning opportunities they provided us with, from quizzes to videos to practical activities and other resources.

For those thinking of taking this course, give it a go, there is nothing more rewarding than persevering and completing something you've put a lot of time and effort into!

It is an absolute eye opener. I wasn't really confident with my knowledge, and didn't know how it would merge together, but this course made it so that I could work on a real life problem while testing everything I have learned until now. It has helped me a lot, and I am really grateful for all the work that has been put on it, I would recommend to at least have a look at the various Cases Studies that are proposed because they're really interesting, and will build up some confidence in you.

I can't seem to put in words how this course has empowered me and literally even though I have not started to venture out into the job hunting, with the skills I have gained , I am sure I can crack something. Thanks to GOOGLE for this great course setup, which was perfect in every way for every googler cum beginner. If invested properly in the entire course, you are sure to benefit from it. Plus the last capstone project is like the icing on the cake which will surely help in gaining a job.

This course has been instrumental in helping me step foot into the data driven world. Although a part of data for a long time since I started working, I never realised there were so many ways and tools that could help me expedite my analytical skills. Also, I have gathered the fundamental approaches in moving ahead with career opportunities in data analytics roles as well. Thank you Team Google for the efforts that you have put in together to curate a course of such stature.

This is the best certificate program/course I have taken on Coursera to date (I have completed over 20 courses). What makes this course different is the breadth of material covered. Not only did it cover the technical skills of a data analyst, but it covered practical skills, behavioral skills, job-hunting skills (putting together a portfolio, interview questions, etc.). I am definitely going to go back over the lessons again, as I feel the time spent is well worth it!

Google is so generous in their courses. They won't just give you completion certificate, they've also put up a third party that will affirm your qualification after completing their course. They also provided free access to platforms that are supposed to be with fee. And best of all, they also connected you to their partners so that the possibility of getting hired is so high! It's as if they've already prepared everything for you. Thank you Google! Thank you Coursera!

This is not an easy course but it's all worth it. I did a lot of googling for codes which is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is quite a learning experience and gave me the confidence to start working as a data analyst. I know that the only way to retain what I have learned in this journey is to keep using it because the old adage 'Practice makes Perfect!' is true.

Thank you Google, Coursera, and the American Dream Academy for giving me this opportunity!

This course is particularly useful because it is taught from an applicability angle inaddition to being taught by people who are practicing data analysis. It puts data analysis into perspective in a very simple and clear manner. I can not overstate the skill and technique and humility with which the instructors deliver the material. The I recommend this for anyone who is interested in data analysis but feels overwhelmed by database languages or programming.
