I finished mechanical engineering, but decided to pursue computers due to better job opportunities. But the transition was anything but smooth. It took me a long time just to get a hang of object oriented programming. I took the help of many instructors, but to no avail. I finally figured it out using innumerable boring books, and I wished they had taught me differently, saving me all that time and frustration. I just thought I will save you some time! Hope you like it!

Most people find it difficult to listen in class or to lectures. This is not the fault of the student. TV and internet has made us tune out of listening to anything that does not visually stimulate and engage us.

​These step by step video tutorial is to fill that void. It is not only effective but is also time saving.​

Concepts are explained in a refreshingly simple manner. You will love the videos. I guarantee it.

It is an excellent course for someone who wish to enter the IT field especially as Business Analyst. The course is equipped with technical awareness and jargons one can across during their initial journey. Another advantage is it is trimmed to 2.5 hours, easy to complete and get the required essence in short span of time. Area of improvement: It would have been more helpful, if author has shared the resources/slides that can be used for preparation.

By Petra Wiertlewski on 1/9/2025

All subjects are explained in a clear and understandable way, I specifically like the visual representation of data/processes. The disappointing part was the big data. The first seem to only represent over 10 years old predictions and the second part could be improved by talking more about the current state of affairs and more data supported facts.

By Yevhen Kliukin on 12/5/2024

In general I liked the course, it was a lot of interesting information The lectures about big data was boring to be honest, mentioning of criminals and traitors is not the best idea worth sharing on the courses (I'd said at all)

By Amruta Mali on 10/21/2024

This was really good one . Very easy to understand steps and for any non technical person is really useful guide. I even read the message from what lead to create this course. I am can look myself into that situation since many years , but finally due to your course content I got actually what knowledge I was looking for.

By Anonymized User on 8/26/2024

Ottimo corso introduttivo che spiega in maniera comprensibile le basidel software development a chi approccia questo mondo per la prima volta o è una figura non tecnica. Interessante anche la parte finale sui Big Data ma è quella che più risente del passare del tempo e forse meno utile per il target di utenti a cui questo corso si riferisce

By shivshankar Medsare on 10/22/2022

yes very much unto my expectations when i was decided to take this course , learnt a lot , very well articulated and explained very well in simple language and made it easy to understand and moreover it didn't feel like technical course at all , highly recommend to technical sales people , people pursuing career in business analyst and product managers.

By Subba Rao Pampana on 6/16/2022

I learned about Software development process and the terminology. It was great. But I needed to know more about the Business Analyst /Project Manager duties, roles, responsibilities, probable daily challenges they may face. Instead I found Big Data videos felt like time pass than related to the topic. I hope more relative content will be added to the course soon.

By Shahid Farooq on 12/8/2021

If you are not a Technical Project Manager, and need to get a good summarized understanding of the whole Technical Team Project flow and terms - then this is the course for you. It will give you a clear understanding of all the terms used and give you the know how and confidence to manage projects in a Software Development Environment. Thank you so much for a birds eye view as Technical Project Management Point of view. This is something I have been looking for a very long time. Appreciate your effort and hope to see more from you. 10 thumbs up

By Laura Dye on 10/21/2021

Great course! Covered a ton of data in a short time (no filler fluff in the lectures, only the knowledge). Explained everything in easy-to-understand terms and examples. A++, highly recommend!

By Mohan Babu Pakala on 5/14/2021
