The course is great for beginners, especially with a focus on the fundamentals of data science and RStudio. It provides a great introduction to Git and Github, which makes it extremely informative.

Great course content and very much informative with the different options of learning either through text or video. A good introductory course to the Data Science: Foundations Using R Specialization.
