Learner Reviews & Feedback for People Analytics by University of Pennsylvania

The course is rather light in data analytics knowledge as applied in HR.

I missed more practical examples to better understand the main concepts

Habían temas muy interesantes y otros que terminaron en muy alto nivel

Great overview class on people analytics...great starting point.

Very sexist, in some lectures women are just non-existing!

I found it interesting but also boring at certain lessons.

Not very valuable compared to other analytics courses.

Good Introductory course on people analytics

Could have used some sample problem sets.

Very rudimetary though well explained

expecting more practical examples

I'd like to do more assignments.

How can I get the certificate?

it needs more applications

ordinary

Basic.

Good

Although the content and theories provided in the course were interesting and allowed me to think about analytics in a different way, I was really hoping for more of a hands-on approach and test cases where I would be able to try and apply some of the things that were taught in the course. Just watching videos and taking a memorization quiz didn't really help to build on my practical usage in this emerging field.

Relative to the other modules (e.g. Operations, Accounting) I found People Analytics mostly anecdotal with little practical application. It would be more helpful (to me) if this module had taken a more "real world" approach to show how actual analyses can be used (e.g. a case study on an actual firm, even if the name of the firm needed to be changed to protect confidentiality).

Glances at some very interesting topics without any providing any valuable insight. Disappointing even for an introductory course. Furthermore, the course authors don't seem to have invested much in the preparation for the course (from an audio/visual perspective), from providing the learners with any additional resources, or giving them avenues for practice.

In first week module instead of spors example the could use HR examples to understand better.

If I had got the opportunity to see how analytics actually works instead of just knowing the name then it would have been helpful

Presenters are great and there's plenty of valuable information. My favorite topic was Organizational Network Analysis. I'm not satisfied because I didn't even have to open up excel or solve any math problems.

It was very theoretical. I dont know if there are any courses from a professional/practical point of view. For example, how to leverage R/Python to unearth insights, what kind of insights, etc.,

I kind of felt that this course only dealt with theory and did not delve deeper into applications and real life problems unlike the course on operational analytics.
