The order of the topics in the modules could have been better. For instance, you discussed creating workspaces before learning to publish reports. Aside that, great course!

You need the Pro Version of Power BI to complete this course. You need to have the online versions or you cannot complete around half the course requirements.

This is more like a long series of promotional\commercial videos rather than practical tutorial. Instructed by different persons, the course lacks integrity and they go back and forth between different topics and repeat a lot of things multiple times. Some parts are tooo much basic and some parts are too advanced. A much shorter course in Udemy was much more helpful for me.

This course is generally solid and much better than the previous two in the program, but it still suffers from poorly written questions that are designed to trick and test knowledge of verbiage rather than practical content.

Lots of mistakes in slides and inconsistent data. Question are worded very vaguely and ambiguously, resulting in misleading answers which do not focus on the intent of the learning (instead focusing on un-important pedantic details).

If you are an experienced analyst, then this course will be relatively easy to do. If you are new to data analysis, then this course is an excellent place to start learning about the types of visualizations that can be created and how to make those visualizations inclusive to a vast audience.

This is one of the most comprehensive courses. It is beginner-friendly, though it might help if the individual already has decent exposure to graphical knowledge.

Great module, my favourite so far. Really enjoyed learning about new visualisations I wasn't familiar with. Particularly enjoyed learning how to use the play axis feature for time series, as well as the forecasting tool. A lot covered in here, and took me longer to get through than I expected.

a great course providing lots of insights into how to effectively use power bi to visualise and present complex data. learned a lot. only issue I found was the graded assignments that didn't have a clear right or wrong answer/ very vague multiple choice options. more practical assignment would be useful to gain more hand on experience with the program. otherwise happy with the training|!

It was the most interesting one so far, but I still thinks that many questions are poorly written, and sometimes I cannot open the course in another tab to search and validate my response from the course material. The layout of coursera is not great.

Learning by example and application is the best method for such courses. Most of the content of some videos is a waste of time.
