Material Covered was very good and meaningful in developing knowledge and skills. Unfortunately a significant amount of time was required accessing the tools to complete the work.

Best course so far, under the IBM Data Science professional certificate program. It is heavy on the practical side, which is a good thing as it gives the person a more hands-on experience.
