During the lock down period I being a health care provider was merely having anytime to surf the internet . But one day I got a little amount of time during the period I accidentally come across a video regarding the opinion of the new data analytics course offered by the Google in collaboration with Coursera. From my early days I have got a natural inclination towards the products and services offered by the Google.By profession I am an Epidemiologist who work for the Government in the Health and Family Welfare Department.My job profile is mostly related to the field and surveillance. Even though I have no idea how the course will add value to my job profile I still think to give it try.So without any further delay I headed to the official website of Coursera and searched for the course. At the time of my visit already fifty thousands have enrolled the same course through out the world. On dated 9th of April 2021 I have enrolled myself for the course.On dated 7th August 2021 I got my certificate. The best part is you can always put in the Facebook or Linkedin social media to showcase yourself to the probable recruiters.Which can be verified online in a legit way and and very difficult to duplicate for misuse.
The Course mainly contains a total of 8 modules which I have to clear . The recommended time for completion was six months which I was able to achieve. If you cant get enough time during busy work you can always get it finished later.
Review
The modules are really interactive and the best part is that you can always go back and re watch the videos if you want to. All the course materials are available to read in the coursera app. But some the practical classes can only be accessed through the large screen like PC, Mac or Chrome Book etc.
During my entire course duration I enjoyed a lot as it was really fun and engaging . Some of the materials are known to me and others are new but you will always have a community to help.
The Hardest Part
As I was completely new to the coding and SQL queries I had to give little more effort in the subjects like Google cloud to run a database query or the Programming language of R. But its completely my opinion I don't feel that everyone may have the same issues as I have .
Course Cost
The subscription cost is on monthly basis and varies from county to country .There are scholarship options available too. But one thing to remember that you need a credit card for the recurring payment on a fixed day of each month. My cost per month was ₹1023 which is really a great deal. Total cost for finishing the course was ₹4092 for which I was really happy that during my busy days I was able to finish such an awesome course before the time.
Final Thoughts
I would suggest that anyone who had a plan to make a carrier in the field of Data Analytics should consider this course no matter what background ie if you are student or a working professional in any other field you can find it easy to understand. Sometimes you may feel it difficult to grasp but trust me as the course advances you will feel it easier.
Happy learning....
