Exactly what I was expecting it to be. I'm learning very valuable stuff in perfect pace.

By Nick Pape

2 hours of focused attention and you'll be a Data Studio master! Great course if you are starting a new job and need to get up to speed on the company trends. This would typically take forever in the GA platform!

By Kur Wassmer

Annabel did an excellent job of introducing me to Google Data studio. This tool is fantastic and the course saved me several hours of time by walking me though all of the key features of the tool. I highly recommend taking the course!

By Tiago Amaral

Muito esclarecedor, exemplos práticos. Saí da aula muito confiante para usar melhor o Google Data Studio.

By Josh

Seriously great course. Perfect start for any rookies starting out in Data Studio. The instructor was obviously very experienced in Data Studio, Google Analytics and overall data visualization. Would take another course of hers if she decides to offer another.

By Jan Kleinsmit

I have been commissioned by a client to present their Google Analytics Data on a monthly basis. Up till a day ago I never knew Google Data Studio existed. What an incredible product from Google.

Annabel presented the course in a concise and insightful manner. I will not be doing her final project but rather dive straight into the client's presentation. Hopefully Annabel will be able to comment on that.

Thank you Annabel for an excellent course - it was worth every cent.

By Alejandro Gomez

For us we're looking at either using Google Sheets or to start incorporating Data Studio, and from the training we didn't see enough value add for Data Studio over Sheets. Perhaps more context surrounding why Data Studio is a good bet to learn and use and what it does better than Sheets would have helped us more. Also I wish it would have covered embedding, and how the industry is using Google Data Studio in general.

By Charlie Sandner

This course taught me so much about Data Studio in such a short time. I have an advanced Analytics Certification, an Adwords Certification, I am well versed in Tag Manager--and use the all in real life. To boot, I'm just the Web Developer, and I'm not supposed to know this stuff. Thank you so much! Also, we use Google Sheets. That was a section that will help me turn reports into something readable.

By Nick Lansing

Simple. Presenter speaks with good diction and pace. I was able to use several techniques into the workplace as I was taking the training.

By G Nelson

Annabel has presented this information is a clear and easily repeatable manner. Course well worth the fee if you need to get up to speed with Google Data Studio quickly. It may help if you have a background with Google Analytics.

By Jessica Thome

Não consegui acesso aos dados [sample] que ela menciona no texto. Acredito que por a aula ser de 2017, esse recurso não esteja mais disponível

By Omkar Kommareddi

This course will provides a good introduction to Data Studio and takes your through the various features. However, a few more projects/challenges could really be added to make it more comprehensive.
