A very good course by Coursera, it briefly discusses nearly all major concepts, current technologies and challenges in big data. The focus is on developing a basic understanding so that the students are able to improve decision making by deploying appropriate tools.

El curso esta muy bien planteado, presentaciones cortas que no te mantienen concentrado en el punto que estan tratando, permitiendo asi tomar apuntes y retener la informacion, adicionalmente al material que exponen cuentan con ejemplos practicos que permiten entender el tema y como se debe implementar el conociemto adquirido en el trabajo

Tanvi J –
It was very basic for the most part, there was also a lot of fluff. The best part was when they went over the major platforms such as SAS, Python, R, and VBA that was something new to me that I didn’t know. The framework was also somewhat useful to know.
Anas B R –
Practice is important for learning
Darren G –
Had to re enrol after failing the final peer review, not because the work was poor but because there is NO assessment criteria to go on. You just wing it. So ok I pay again repeat the peer review no feedback on the grade have to re enrol again $71 later the message is my grade will be ready on Jan 16. What a rip off.

Lots of good and applicable information. The last study case project had confusing instructions in my opinion.

Ravindra –
Course was good, covered wide variety of topics, and gave 10000 feet view of the data driven decision making process. It would have been better if there was a deep dive on one of the aspects of decision analysis framework
Adeleke O J –
very explanatory from someone who had no idea about data analytics, if you take this course by the end of the first week, you’d have started thinking like a data analyst. thumbs up for the trainers.
Dariya M –
Very informative, but could be more practice oriented
Khurshid A –

Maks M –
The course gives a good horizontal overview of the field, but maybe lacks some in depth case study that applies the mentioned methodologies. Overall still is a great course and I would recommend it to anyone interested!
Yuliia –
The course provides a lot of theoretical information on the topic. Without going into details, it gives an overall overview of the decision making process of the consultants. The final project is tailored to the course and gives an opportunity to get hands on experience on the topic learned.
Ulkar A –
it was very interesting course! thanks 🙂
Linda C –
High level overview. Good intro
Kyle J –
This is a general introduction with no practical applications or exercises in decision making. The instructors look like more stock actors from an infomercial with the personality of white bread.

Debra A S –
This course give you the basics and taught you how to think as an analyst. Excellent lectures. I did not appreciate having to review my peers coursework, but in doing this, it also taught me exactly what to look for and what to do, when i have a client. I definitely don’t like talking in the forum, I dont have the time for this, but i guess in the long run, it has a value i am still to learn.

Christina M –
The last 2 weeks of the course were great. I really enjoyed the simulation and the project. It would have been great to have had some more practical work earlier in the course as the first 2 weeks read somewhat like an advertisement for PWC data consultancy.

This has been helpful in thinking how you approach a problem and create a path to resolution.
