This is the first course in the Google Data Analytics Certificate. Organizations of all kinds need data analysts to help them improve their processes, identify opportunities and trends, launch new products, and make thoughtful decisions. In this course, you’ll be introduced to the world of data analytics through hands-on curriculum developed by Google. The material shared covers plenty of key data analytics topics, and it’s designed to give you an overview of what’s to come in the Google Data Analytics Certificate. Current Google data analysts will instruct and provide you with hands-on ways to accomplish common data analyst tasks using the best tools and resources.

This gives a great foundation for Data Analytics. The instructors do skim over everything and I would have liked more detail but most of what I wanted to find out more about I was able to find online.

Great Introduction to Data Analytics. Can't wait to learn more. I only wish Python was a part of the course but I'm sure the reason for choosing R over Python was well thought out by Google.

I thoroughly enjoyed the videos hosted by Tony and the other presenters. The only change I would make, is to add the like or dislike icons at the bottom of these pages like the other pages.

Great so far, informative yet not overwhelming. Also good at having students visualize themselves as data analysts, to try it out and see if they can see themselves pursuing it as a career.

The instructor is amazing and so is the format. I really liked the fact that they started with teaching how to think like a data analyst before going into the nitty-gritties of data itself.
