The course content is just superb, and the way the faculty is teaching the course is just fantastic. I did not find any course on time series forecasting having such kind of conceptual clarity.

Practice exercise difficulty should be increased. More varieties of sample data also warranted. Overall, a very good experience.

Too much focus on decimal points and basic tasks in Excel. Poor quality control on course materials (power points, worksheets, and tests)

Very disappointing course. It only goes through manually creating calculations and doesn’t delve into any of the forecast functions, not even forecast.ets!!!!. It also makes a couple of foundational mistakes on the decomposition method. I got halfway through the second course and gave up as a waste of time for anyone who has done even a little bit of investigation into forecasting/demand planning. You'll be much better off researching Youtube. I had high hopes because I enjoyed other Maquarie courses for Excel but this one is not the same quality.
PS, Almost as much time is spent on quizzes as on learning.
