This course has way too much reading and too little video's. I'm on Coursera doing these courses so I can watch video's explaining the material since this is a way of teaching that works much better for me. If I want to read about this I can just Google it or ask an AI for the material.

Dreadfully boring and slow-paced. You're better off doing the Google BI Certificate.

Easy and straight-forward introduction to some of the basic principles of what the role of a BI analyst does and how they can contribute to the success of a company. Personally I just completed the Google Data Analytics Certificate so all of this felt like a nice refresher, and if that's the case for your situation, I'm sure it will feel the same.

This course is mainly text-based, which is not my preferred way of learning.

Great course - it's for anyone interested in becoming a business analyst, business intelligence analyst, or data analyst

Very grateful for Tableau teaming up with Coursera to provide this program

A really great introductory course! I was literally starting from zero, and this well-organized, very clear introduction was actually a lot of fun.

one of the best courses by far, I had taken about BA .... I wish they course take about only BA with Professional Certificate

The graded quizzes, had questions that were not even near to discussed in the course. Or they had questions that were taught later. This course felt more like a marketing gimmick then actual teaching

As promised and after a little bit of a scare there with the 8th course I am now changing my review. The Professional certificate throughout all the 8 courses involved in attaining it was at times intense but worth every minute committed. I enjoyed learning more about Tableau and its interface through the creation of specific visualizations created from accessible data/data sets.

I know a lot of people have complained about the course being reading-heavy, but that's how I learn best. In previous video-heavy courses, I felt like I wasn't processing the information well, but this is a much-appreciated change of pace. The material isn't dense, and it's friendly to those of us who aren't super familiar with business analysis. I'm for sure going to continue!

Muito bem explicado, Vale muito a pena dar esse salto na carreira. Vim buscar esse conhecimento, pois estou me graduando no curso de ciência de dados, e ainda não estou trabalhando na área especificamente. Vejo esse curso como uma grande oportunidade e como um grande nome que vai estar no meu currículo futuramente.

A lot of my doubts on B.I, Data Analytics and Business Analytics were only solved through this course. There is a lot of valuable knowledge here that you will not find easily on the internet. I should say, however, it's easy and fast. If that's what you're looking for, it's perfect.

Very educational and professional teaching. If you can't learn the concepts as straighforwardly explained as they do it, definitely you will not understand it anywhere else.

The structure and learning elements provided are well organized and help you come forward in understanding the Introduction to Business Analytics.

A good high-level view of the many topics and areas of expertise that a business analyst will need to be familiar with.

Fairly challenging but you truly learn a lot of new concepts that will help you in understanding what is out there.

I had a great experience studying the materials. Greater one with ease of understanding. I feel greatly refreshed.

The whole understanding of handling data and data literacy is an eyeopener for me. Great course

This course gives a clear insight of Business Analytics, Business Analysis and Data Analytics.
