Everything is really good, but it would be nice if all of the resources were on one website or at least shared a login. I don't like that I had to create three new accounts to manage the course resources.

It's the first time participating ExitCertified courses. The experience is overall good.

I took the fundamental class and passed. This is my second class. So far so good.

La experiencia fue muy buena, le doy la mayoría del merito al instructor, resulto excelente y muy apegado a la realidad.

I recommend this course for anyone who is interested in data mining and analytics.
