I feel empowered, Thank you for the opportunity.

I am a Data Scientist but I am not practicing because I don't feel that my knowledge was proficient. This course give me the baseline I was lacking.

It was a really interesting course as part of this Google certification. I was able to learn the basics of data analysis. We didn't start directly with the technique and I think it's good to know the why of everything we will do afterwards. I'm looking forward to continuing to go in depth to discover the wonderful world of data.

This is a great foundational course to learn the basics. I really liked that there are transcripts for every video and that different people who worked at Google appeared in videos to share their personal experience as it relates to data analytics. I would also recommend if you want to learn about what career paths are possible.

I started working on Google's "Foundations: Data, Data, Everywhere" course and it is absolutely amazing. There are a lot of different modules that cover a variety of topics that really help you learn the basics. I really like how interactive the interface is and how it's much more effective than a typical lecture.

This course set me up with a better understanding of the more in depth information I am about to learn. The information was presented in a style that makes self-guided learning easy.

This is an excellent overview to the data world. Not just on data analysis, but for whoever that wants to know where each specialisation of data analytics play a role. The course was nicely designed and easy-to-follow, and the whole theme was google-ishly pleasant. Looking forward to moving to the next stage of the certificate.

I really appreciated the slower deliberate pace that Tony used for introducing the material to those who are new to the field. The content, the exercises, the visualization, information on future possibilities in the industry, and the introduction to other course instructors all made it an exciting and non-intimidating course!

I give it 5 star because has Computer Science graduate I found it so goal oriented and insightful. Thank you google for making it so comfortable to learners in terms of bringing the understanding gap that exists in institutions due to approach used for 'our institutions'. They make things hard forgetting the goal of education!

This is course was really good. I believe the build-up to the other courses really makes it easier for me to understand everything about analysis, especially when I have no background about the topic at all. This is a really good way for me, and for others to start in this career--building a skill.

Thank you for your hard work!

Great material with great explanations! It answered a lot of my questions and reassured me that it is ok not to have to know everything going into a job. I always feel like I should know more or that I have "imposter syndrome". I look forward to learning more from these courses and getting started on my new career adventure!

The course was such a smooth flowing experience. It didn't feel like it was like any other course, with huge amount of information stuffed without us able to retain most of it, but the course was designed in such a beautiful way that we were able to grasp and apply all the concepts discussed. Looking forward to learning more!

So far, so good. I have completed some courses previosuly working with SQL but the first course in this program has helped to ground my understanding of data analysis, the data life cycle and the six key steps a data analyst follows. It has also helped me to think about where I use data in real life and day-to-day situations.

Me gusto mucho el curso, aunque son cosas básicas, te abre mucho el panorama sobre que puedes desempeñarte en el ambito profecional. En particular me gusto porque tenia una idea sobre a que se dedicaba un analista de datos y este curso hizo que me gustara más la idea, creo que ya se en que me especializare. Gracias por todo.
