I think the course is a little but technical for product managers, I would expect more examples from the real life to be used in industry and less mathematical calculations

Excellent course, very interesting, useful, well balanced. Very skilled lecturer and the material is easy to understand and fruitful for the graded assignment provided.

I found the course super informative and thorough. However, my main problem with it was that contrary to the title, I didn't find it well targeted to Product Managers at all. There was a lot of knowledge that is very relevant to engineers, but most PM will never need to touch. From the other side, not enough emphasise (in my opinion) was given to decision making and considerations that would be very relevant to PMs in order to fill their jobs properly.

Overall, I found the course valuable and I do think it adds meaningful insight into machine learning concepts. That said, based on my own experience, I would strongly encourage anyone interested in taking it to make sure they have the prerequisite knowledge first. There is a fair amount of higher-level math and terminology that the course moves through quickly, and having that foundation already absorbed would make the learning experience much smoother

Lots of what, not enough why. Some lessons are just explanations of algorithms without examples of why or how they would be useful. I can look up these concepts anywhere, wikipedia, google. I'm taking this course to learn why something is important, not to go through motions like a machine.

A completely new experience, this course, a lot is explained in the video, but then solving a complex task without practice, where you have to repeat everything, shocked me at first. Hope you understand this english better, like me.

Was trying to do too many things in a single course. Could have done with introduction of less concepts - I am not sure how many people will remember K-means clustering 1 month after doing this course.

I am indifferent to just reading the slides vs going through the slides. The quiz and slides are great not the content delivery.

The instructor was a bit boring. Talked a lot about equations but never showed examples of how to use them.

Please add some videos about tools such as excel and how to use this models in that

i need a lot more doing to learn this type of thing being a non technical person

The title is deceptive. It's 90% data analytics which I do understand is the foundation of ML but the rest 10% is not worth the value and not very well explained. I'd rather do fast ai free lessons 4,5 than pay for this.

Incredibly un-interactive content. Could use visual aides and animations to liven it up. The content is all pre-written and delivered in a way that will make your eyes glaze over. Not relatable or presented in a way that would be conducive to retaining the information.

The Content was good but could have been explained better with examples The project does not get graded and you will never receive your certificate as this is a SCAM. There is no way to contact a person if you have any issues.
