    Data Analyst Nanodegree opens a different world of experience and analysis. Learning has no limitation, especially with ages. I did not know what to expect and thought it would be very hard for me to take the courses because I have no experiences i…

    This is a great job. Some examples going fast more than learner can achieve the goal of it. In lesson 2 you asked me to give analysis on data before teaching steps but the next lessons show steps. I recommend giving steps first then asking a practice. I'm the first stage but I feel it give me more skills. Thanks to all team members.

    Foreign Mentors, Unfair Project Submission Guidelines, Kept Charging Me After I Quit I'll keep this brief and exclude some of the positives of the program in order to prove my point. 1) Mentors come once a week, which isn't so bad. The first mentor…
  • Great experience for a beginner
    The Data Analyst Nanodegree in Udacity is a very good preparation for my master program in Analytics at USF. I had little programming experience before doing the Nanodegree. It is easy to follow for beginners, and you can learn A LOT from it. However, it is not easy to go through every course and get the degree certificate. It took me about half a year, and I studied at least one hour almost every day (Maybe it is just my problemT_T). Anyway, as long as you stick with it, it worths your time.
    I am not sure this nanodegree will guarantee a good job, as I am still studying deeper in data analytics instead of looking for a job. But it is a good choice if you are a beginner.

    Data Analyst NanoDegree Program
    I've completed data analyst program and I was really satisfied about entire education. Even the most complex subjects are explained simple and understandable. Order of units were very well designed, examples of each subject were selected from up-to-date topics. EDA and Introduction to machine learning parts were my favorite units. Every project had given me more confident on each subject. As a last comment reviews were exremely detailed and helped me understanding the subjects nearly as well as learning from videos. Thanks to all Udacity team.

    Neat video lectures with lots of hands-on experience I think one of the important aspects that Udacity shines at is their video lectures quality and the way they present content. The fact that there is no slides in the video lectures makes you alway…
