The lady is hard to understand at times due to the thickness of her accent. Her pitch hurts my ears when I turn up the volume to relisten to it on my headphones. Perhaps you an adjust

I have been wanting to learn more about the Data Analytics and Data Engineering. Happy to find a course that gives more insight to Data Analytics and what it is.
By Priscille Djankou on 6/11/2026
Yes. At this point it is informative for a beginner that I am. I hope I will encounter practical exercises on how to use the different tools and software mentioned so far.

Audio glitch experienced. I lost the audio after I paused and it too a bit of time to finally get it working again. Content is easy to follow and current.
By Zonke Siwundla on 5/21/2026
It is a new concept for me and I am excited to learn. So far I am able to grasp.

By William D Surridge on 4/19/2026
Feels large and overwhelming, especially with the documents being given at the start. Some explanation of what the documents are and how they will be used through the course would be useful.
By Sebastian Chipoyera on 1/14/2026
Very good course. Will be helpful for when you take industry recognized certificate tests.
By Lanet Pace-Wright on 1/11/2026
The learning style was easy and explained in detail making it an easy learning process.
By Viorel Mirea on 1/7/2026
I took this course to get a comprehensive, structured overview of data analysis and data-based decision making, and it definitely covers a very wide scope: data collection and cleaning, statistics, visualization, Excel, SQL, business analysis, data privacy, and several specialization areas. It feels more like a compact academic program than a single course, and it’s useful for building a broad mental map of the data analysis field and understanding how all the pieces fit together. Because of the huge scope, the depth and hands-on practice vary a lot between sections, and some parts feel more like lecture-style introductions than practical training. I would have liked to see more substantial exercises, projects, and real datasets, especially in areas like SQL and statistics. That said, for beginners or career switchers who want a structured, end-to-end overview of the data analysis landscape before going deeper into specific tools, it’s a solid starting point.
