About the Course

This is the first of four courses in the Google Business Intelligence Certificate, which will help develop the skills needed to apply for entry-level roles as a business intelligence (BI) professional. People who work in BI help organizations access the right data, use data to help businesses grow and improve, and put insights into action. In this course, you’ll discover the role of BI professionals within an organization and explore BI tools you can use on the job. Google employees who currently work in BI will guide you through this course by providing hands-on activities that simulate job tasks, sharing examples from their day-to-day work, and helping you build business intelligence skills to prepare for a career in the field. Learners who complete the four courses in this certificate program will have the skills needed to apply for business intelligence jobs. This certificate program assumes prior knowledge of foundational analytical principles, skills, and tools covered in the Google Data Analytics Certificate. By the end of this course, you will: -Make key distinctions between business intelligence (BI) and data analysis -Explore how data is used in business processes and decision-making -Describe ways that BI professionals impact their organizations -Identify the uses and benefits of BI tools, including data models, pipelines, data visualizations, and dashboards -Acquire, manipulate, and integrate data using key BI concepts -Select and define metrics that are relevant to project goals and stakeholder questions -Develop and execute a BI project by working with stakeholders to determine project requirements, execute tasks, and deliver insights that guide decision-making...

Really lacking some hands-on activities. The course is rather aimed at learning Google's definitions of different aspects of BI-related activities. Still, the structure is really well-done and the mix of tasks shows a lot of work was done. Hope further courses will bring more practical experience.

I can't give this 5 stars. My opinion is skewed because I'm taking this 2 weeks after completing the Google Data Analytics course. This felt like a review and I could have skipped to the second course. If I was taking this fresh I would likely have a different opinion.

It is good, but can better, the orientation is a mess and no clear path for the upcoming lessons. Although each lesson on itself is crystal clear, sometimes I left wonder why advanced topic is here or referring to something else. Anyhow, good job Google team.

Great overview and set up of the class. My big issue was the data set in the final project is not viewable. All the data is showing as null in the bigquery database.

Es muy interesante a nivel general. Pero quizá confunden mucho los conceptos, y los escenarios que plantean son bastante irreales.

Too much extra content and explanations of BigQuery are difficult to follow for beginners. Tedious videos and too much noise.

Too basic for seasoned professionals.

Too basic and completely useless for seasoned professionals. It lacks hands-on application and is mostly theories, concepts and terms. The user is being monetized rather than educated. The content is designed to extend your subscription (and even requiring additional subscriptions at times), while providing no real opportunities to build skills. It's a google branded upsell.
