This is not "advanced" anything. It's basic introductory work to what data professional roles are, and how to organize your work process. Most annoyingly, it's hyper-focused on Google's personal little workflow project, not anything actually used in the real world, such as Agile, Scrum, or traditional project management (waterfall style) approaches or technology. The only reason I'm not giving it fewer stars is because at the beginning it outlines the difference between data science and data analysis, and in that way can help focus your future study efforts, but it's really not in depth anywhere else in ways that are helpful.

Too high level, no essence. Probably good for someone who has never worked in IT industry, but with at least minimal knowledge and some work experience a lot of material is already known. PACE framework is useful, but again - quite basic and just common sense if one already had some work experience of any kind.

Foundations of Data Science is misleading (It's foundations of Data analysis). Also to not be able to get the certificate until you pay is irking. Also found some brain washing in the course particularly with coaching. I do like the PACE structure and the communication part.

The course seemed completely useless to me. Very little attention to technical subjects and a lot of unnecessary useless information. Perhaps this is my personal problem, but I formed some expectations based on a course syllabus that were not met.

The focus on 'communication' was good, but it was very obvious that this was not done by professional educators, because the videos are just 'talking heads' and they are reading from a script, which is an awful format for teaching online.

instead of giving technical tools, this course “talk” about how to become data analyst with many unrelevent data, they also invented” PACE ‘ instead of the steps learned in the basic proficiency

Interactive but very lengthy for no reason. They expanded 4 topics (PACE, RACI matrix, Project proposal and Executive Summaries) into 5 modules. Hoping for better.

This is very obvious stuff for what is the ADVANCED certificate. It felt like a waste of time for the most part, but the PACE model was okay.

I expected much from this course. They should have introduced some advanced theory topics about data science.

This doesnt seem appropriate for the advanced certificate. More for the intro cert.

Does not seem to adress data science but rather focuses on the "soft skills"

Very basics and a lot of no a lot of useful content (a lot of marketing).

extremely fluffy, waste of time with extremely unnecessary quizzes.

Falta mejorar contenidos y ser más practico, muy monótono.

Format for South African national ID is wrong

I liked the PACE module, Informative and nice to know, rest are not so intriguing and instead of focusing just on diversity and other trendy things stick to your primary role which is tutoring as best as you can to uphold the brand's name your carrying! I cannot believe that you just putted some soulless reading from teleprompt some boring texts! put some professional adult who has knowledge and can explain form his experience and understanding instead of trying just to act and smile!

If you want to learn something in the most unoptimized manner, then this is the course for you. It wastes so much time on useless things, on useless theory, like how to communicate within the team, with the client, and stakeholders, and many other such topics, which are not at all needed and should be optional in Appendix or something.

That is not foundations of data science. That's more like a discussion on data science and what people do. Nothing more than that. The whole thing could be done in a 10-minute video. Quite a few repetitions.

i foud the module completely useless based on the fact that i signed for and avanced analytics course. Hope to see something better n the next modules

Haven't been able to get hold of the certificate as my verification is still pending after multiple tries.

very basic and not related to technical knowledge what is actually required for a job seeker

Not necessary for people with experience. Just long videos and repetitive content

I found this to be uninteresting. This is a recruitment course for Google.

my name is wrongly verified in the certificate. Please help me to correct
