Instructor Details

Manuel Lorenz

Having worked as abusiness analyst in both a major consultancy and an investment bank, I always found myself confrontedwith bothvarious and complex problem sets and challenging client demands. The rapid development oftechnologyand business requirements forces everyone toconstantlyadapt and to continue learning.

Being an early adopter of new and quickly evolvingtools, I always enjoyed both learning these tools andpassing on my knowledge to my colleagues and fellow students.
Since working as a business analystimplies a high affinity to programming, I also enjoyworking as a web developer. It's that combination of self-taught knowledgeand its application in a highly competitive consulting environment for various clientswhich gave me the ability toevaluate solutionsfrom an industry perspective as well asfrom a learner's perspective. The latter also allows me toidentify thepain points students might hit when learning these tools.
Since I always found it hard to find high quality, understandable and comprehensive learning materials,I decided to createsuch materials on my own. Together with Maximilian Schwarzmller I founded Academind to offer the best possible learning experience on web development and data science to our more than 600,000 students.

So far this course is giving a good practical introduction to the topic I wish to master.

By Santiago Zurletti on 12/13/2020

Very well explained and in detail

By Jennifer Rash on 12/6/2020

I enjoyed the course. I was confused by how to submit assignments, but otherwise thought it was clear and helpful.

By Jos Miguel Vargas Bautista on 12/6/2020

Excellent course.

By Jessica Hammond on 11/17/2020

As other reviews have mentioned, it is definitely time to update this course.
If you are taking this course for work, and already have a database that will connect to QuickSight, you may want to look for a different course. This one specifically focuses on SPICE and S3.
That said, the instructors are fantastic and are great at explaining how Quick Sight functions.

By Eduardo Atilio Elicegui on 11/15/2020

very clear bu repeating the same concepts a lot

By Murilo Rosendo on 11/9/2020

Poderia ser mais avancado

By Mission Labs on 11/4/2020

Step 37 on this course is missing a critical piece of information. When created a new S3 bucket you need to give QS permissions for the new bucket! this is not covered in this video at all. Very frustrating hour wasted. Please update the video with a prompt to update QS security when creating a new bucket

It was good. Thank you.

By Aldo Bittel on 10/7/2020

Speaker speak to much with his hands. I would learn, how we can join in a dataset S3 and RDS together.
course is 3 years old and QuickSight has an other look. But that was not a problem.
