This course includes a comprehensive overview of the all the basic models that are used to analyze data concerning customer behavior. The real-life examples made it easier to relate to those theories.

Though I have worked on Customer Analytics with my previous work experiences and also on Surveys etc at George Brown College Canada, this module was more than insightful. Lots of learning to learn eh!

Some of the information on the tests was difficult to extract from the course and there are still a few questions I don't know the answer to.

I'd have preferred if it had a touch of practical/calculative aspect to it. Otherwise from theoretical point of view, the course was great!!

A few more real life examples on how to use the formulas would have been helpful. Some questions in the quizzes were not covered. Otherwise,

Brilliant course but it would be great if they go into much more depth. It is a great course who are just starting in the analytics phase.

As a law student, I would recommend you to teach by using slides in every class so the non-business students can follow the course easier.

If there were more examples and real calculations like in the other courses of the specialization, probably this course will be the best.

O Curso é ótimo, mas como é uma área em que o conteúdo se defesa rapidamente, acredito que alguns módulos já deveriam ser atualizados.

Basics are good, few of the prediction formulas not shown. What the statastic formulas used and how to use in real life is missing.

The information was great. My only issue was with the quizzes. If you got the answer wrong, it doesn't explain why it was wrong.
