"Solid Introduction to Data Science"

Pros:
+ Knowledgable and outgoing instructor whose passion for the topic is infectious.
+ Helpful feedback on projects.
+ Solid amount of course and reference material.
+ Open environment - Free flow of questions and ideas.
+ Students equally curious about... Read More

Cons:
- Course length is too short to teach substantially on any one topic. More of an introduction to all the tools and steps of a data project.
- A lot of outside work is needed to keep pace.
- Not enough time spent on deeper topics such as Applying Statistic and Machine Learning.

We were fortunate to have had Michal as our instructor. Very personable and knowledgable. Unfortunately, the course length decided by Xccelerate was too short. Not recommended for those with exposure to the topic. Xccelerate should rename this course as 'Intro to Data Science' or make the course longer. Alternatively, create an intermediate level course with light pre-reqs (such as completing Xccelerate's programming course) so the time can be spent purely on data science.

This course, however, was good for those with little-to-no experience/exposure to Data and wants an introduction!
