Hear from our learners

As a data advocate and practitioner in the humanitarian and development sectors, it was incredibly insightful to see how cutting-edge statistical techniques are being used by world-class economists and researchers to inform more equitable policymaking.

Niccolò C.

Big Data for Social Good
This is a topic that people in any industry should have at least basic knowledge of in order to create more efficient and competitive businesses, tools, and resources.

Carlos E. S.

Data Science Principles
I was highly impressed how uniquely and smartly this entire course was designed and structured. There were variety of real life application/industry based mandatory individual/group assignments/case studies which were not that easy. Your thought process and critical thinking gets deeply challenged.

Avnish K.

Data Science Principles
The way this complicated topic was presented and the reflection it caused was impressive. I enjoyed the way I could dive into a whole new world of expertise in such an engaging way.

Sonja S.

Data Science Principles
It's especially beneficial for learners to be able to tie back new or abstract concepts to ideas that we understand. This course helped me understand data in this context and what algorithms are actually trying to solve.

Alejandro D.

Data Science Principles
Data Science Principles applies to many aspects of our daily lives. The course helps guide people in everyday life through decision making and process thinking.

Jared D.

Data Science Principles
The course was informative on both current and future data privacy and technological innovation trends—the need for data privacy without inhibiting innovation. The team and instructors prompt critical thinking while broadening the understanding of data privacy beyond the frontiers.

Joanita N.

Data Privacy and Technology
I love the way the course is structured with real-world examples and the critical thinking sessions. It forces us to reflect upon what is happening around us. People who have an interest in cybersecurity, as well as those that would like to gain more general knowledge, would greatly benefit from this course.

Anand N.

Data Privacy and Technology
The way the course is designed helped me to interact with my peers and learn from them, expending my perspective about the subjects being discussed. I also feel that I learned more about privacy and data protection in ways that I would never have thought about it if it wasn't for the real-world cases.

Camilla de C.

Data Privacy and Technology
The course is especially relevant for anyone who is venturing into a career path centred around data privacy and technology. I also appreciate the interplay between privacy and technology because I got to see just how crucial it is to guard against the innovation of technology that is non-compliant with data privacy laws.
