    About the Course

    In the final course, we'll tie all the concepts they’ve learned throughout this program together. They’ll tackle scenarios in Qwiklabs that will
    challenge them to use multiple skills at once. They’ll take a closer look at how to use external Python modules like the Python Image Library
    (PIL) to extend their code’s capabilities. They’ll also use data serialization to turn in-memory objects into messages that can be sent over
    programs with Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Finally, learners will solve a real-world problem by using their technical knowledge to
    create a program!

    To me, this is the best course in the specialization. It helps you realize how far you've gotten from just barely learning Python and it also has the best labs where you can practice your skills.

    It was an interesting, amazing, and useful set of courses. Through using these courses, I managed to obtain a unique set of skills such as automating real-world tasks, troubleshooting and debugging techniques and configuration management, and so on. Thank you very much for the best practice for the IT administrative role. Thank all staff who was involved in this essential course development. Thank all and personally, Christina, Roger, Kenny, Amanda, and Phelan. All the best for Your Professional Career.

    Final lab was pretty long and somewhat difficult. Even after doing all the work in my own linux vm and just had to copy 90 percent of it to the lab environment, I only had like a minute left as I ran into some problems but was able to fix them just in time. Overall, the specialization was pretty good except for the cloud computing one. It was just too much talking and not enough actually showing us about the technology. I'm just glad I completed it, wohoo!

    This course has really helped me seen System Administration and IT Technical Support from in a whole new light. When I started I thought it was going to be easy but as I progressed I realised it was not the ease but the amount of work and thinking that goes into delivering cutting edge solutions. I am confident with all the skills I have acquired in this course and would keep my fingers crossed for more exciting courses from Google and awesome Googlers.

    This course was well-structured, engaging, and informative. The hands-on projects were particularly useful in reinforcing the material covered in each module. The instructors were knowledgeable and provided helpful feedback on project submissions. Overall, I highly recommend this course for anyone interested in developing practical automation skills with Python.

    You need to have every concept very clear, Problems proposed are so wide, It took me around 7 completely dedicated days to fill this challenge. But I beat it. It worth it, I'm so happy for this. Everyone just keep pushing even when you think you're getting stuck, maybe you just need to clear your mind, drink a cup of coffee and start again with a new idea.

    This is a wonderful course, made with soul. This is a wonderful story in simple words about complex topics. Huge thanks to the amazing creators and Google Corporation. I am a refugee from Ukraine studying to find a job and this course has been a huge support for me and my family during a difficult time after russia's dastardly attack on Ukraine.

    Finally thowing it all into practice! I'm glad coursera breaks up the knowledge into sections, but it would be nice to have some more practice from prior modules before jumping into the final Week of throwing it all together. Puppet and IaaS learning tended to bump some other Python knowledge out of my brain, leaving me to scramble back a lot.

    This course has been an extraordinarily valuable learning experience for my professional development. The combination of practical and theoretical content, along with hands-on exercises in automation, image processing, and system monitoring, is allowing me to significantly improve my efficiency in daily work.

    I still can't believe that i can really do these things.. I wonder hoe i just started with just a little knowledge and thinking whether it is correct decision or not but now i will say i make aright decision to enroll for this course. They are just awesome not only in their work but also in teaching people...

    Definitely the most rewarding labs in the series. This course takes off the training wheels and lets you write most of the code on your own, the labs are harder but very satisfying to finish, I especially like the last lab. Definitely recommend the entire Specialization and this course. Thanks.

    long course but definitely worth it, even when done quickly it gives alot of exposure to the Information Technology field as well as a lot of Python knowledge and skills that can be applied to other languages as well. A great beginners course that is practical and relatively challenging

    Bastante útil, en el laboratorio se presentaron muchos errores pero el lograr corregirlos también fue experiencia de aprendizaje, aunque puede ser algo frustrante considerando que hay tiempos de entrega, afortunadamente los foros están disponibles al igual que el personal de qwicklabs.

    Incredible course! Well structured and you advance in each chapter learning new topics at the same time that the complexity increases. The laboratories are quite a challenge that motivate you to think differently and look for alternatives to do the job well done.

    This was incredibly rewarding, I used everything included GitHub to be able to move all my scripts to a different session when the time of my first lab expired since the time was not enough for me. Almost every concept in the course was used in this last module

    It's a fantastic opportunity for me, as several of the courses were new to me. This course has a light touch, and further courses include server monitoring, platform interaction, version control, and so on.
