After completion of the course even after paying money, you will not get the certificate of your name so according to me this is not acceptable at all

The instructor gets 5 stars. She speaks clearly and at a good pace. Coursera should have her teach a full course on Data Analysis.
Microsoft or Coursera...The constant interruptions from the left pane of Microsoft 0 stars. Not sure if that's MS or Coursera technical issue.
There should be an option to pin the instructor's screen side of the screen. I logged on to my MS account and downloaded the excersise files. I'm using my own MS account to follow along using excel on a second monitor.
I tried expanding the right side by using the icon at the top right. It'll stay in a full screen position for a few minutes and then it goes back to a split screen. This happened constantly during the presentation. Also, happened in other guided project tutorials.
I tried logging out of the MS side screen by clicking on the 3. and choosing exit.

It can't be more perfectly explained! Thank you so much for this course, I wish I found this before wasting many weeks on the google data analytics certificate, this could have saved me so much time. Anyways, kindly make more projects like this, it was amazing keep it up!

This course was very interesting to attend, it was super quick, but it was quite fun, and I got to sharpen my skills in some data analysis tasks.
I would not mind it at all if another guided project came along, a bit more complex ehehe

The assessment test needs to be more practical! Multiple choice questions don't test the learners skillset optimally. A case study with pragmatic business questions should be used to test the knowledge stick of students using Excel and not some simple objective questions.

Instructor was clear, had a pleasant voice, easy to follow instruction, and had a steady pace that was good. My experience, so far, with some Coursera instructors has been that some go at a pace that is so fast one has to continually rewind the video. This instructor's pace was perfect.
My only suggestion would be to have several sample exercises after each task, rather than the one. This would ingrain that task so when it comes time to utilize this skill in real-world situations, it has been cemented in memory.

By the end of the course, I felt much more confident using Excel for data analysis. I can now create meaningful reports, automate repetitive tasks, and draw insights from large datasets with ease. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to enhance their Excel skills for data analysis. It’s well-structured, practical, and a fantastic investment in your professional development. Whether you’re analyzing data for business, research, or personal projects, this course is a game-changer!

This helped me understand VLOOKUP and IF a lot better, and I'm very happy I took it. I've already used tables and PivotTables for data analysis before but found that the size of the data made it difficult to use in Excel, so this is much better for smaller spreadsheets and datasets. One small complaint is that the final quiz will ask you how to save an Excel Online spreadsheet when it saves to the cloud automatically. That should be fixed.
Other than that, I highly suggest taking this!

Loved it , the guide is very polite and is able to draw my attention to every minute details , couldn't even know how time flied and I completed this . Being a Biology student I always find these things quite difficult to follow, she made it a peace of cake , and this platform is best for new learnings and new skills. Loads of love to Coursera!

You made my day today. You are the kind of teacher I have been looking for, you really know how to break things down to bits that can be comprehended. Thank you so much, and in case you have other materials on Data Analysis, I would be grateful to take those lessons.

The Guided Project was well-structured and provided practical hands-on experience, which was very helpful. However, I would have appreciated more in-depth explanations for some of the advanced functions. Overall, it was a valuable learning experience
