Would have rated it much better IF the professors / instructors did more to update the labs and coursework, spent way too much time figured out errors and reading forums, when this all could have been avoided if the instructors were proactive

The course is very outdated. It shows you ways to make JOINS that have not been used in the industry for more than 40 years and only in the last chapter do they show you the current Joins.

It is also not possible to connect Jupyter with BD2.

Pretty terrible quality labs, barely explaining the material on connections or using SQL in python. No one can progress in the course because of some kind of error. It's been weeks according to the backlogs on the discussion forums.

Course content is good but giving 2 stars as sometime the jupyter notebook sql had issue connecting to the ibm Db2 database instance, Skills network lab doesnt work sometime and I had to do trial and error to submit the assignment

Quite good because of the information. However, if you try to use the same code on Microsoft SQL Sever is useless. Besides, most of the code is disorganized for example use ON statement in the same line of FROM TABLE_NAME

The sql is easy, but the course makes it complicated for no reason. Instructions are incomplete on assignments, and issues are known to teaching staff. Ends up wasting 3 hours of time trying to solve known course issues.

I found the course very dry. Parallel I was doinga python course on Udemy, the 100 day bootcamp, and the contrast with the energy you get from Angela in that course compared to this Coursera course was very stark.....

Excessive time spent on getting stuff to work. Very little added value beyond simple definitions. Peer reviewed assignments are a disaster - people can give points as they wish....

Need to update instructions and screenshots for the ibm cloud site. Instructors dont respond to many questions in the forum and when they do their answers are often breif and vague

the base course is just fine, but the honors course doesn't teah you what you need to know to comfortably complete the final assignment, also it is required for some tracks.

There were a lot of troubleshooting errors that I realise, were not only unique to me. These errors were not addressed properly and I ended googling some of these Issues

The course has big technical issues that slow down the completion. I am quite disappointed by the application utilized in the course. The course lessons are good.

The course overall is good with the content. However, there are some technical difficulties to run the final project and have very little support.

Course content is great but working on IBM DB2 is very confusing. Faced a lot of technical issues where it took a lot of time to deal with.

El contenido es bueno, pero no funcionan todas las practicas y en IBM cloud no me acepto el código para la práctica gratuita en DB2.

The quality of the course material, workshops, and support for this class was abysmal compared to the other classes in this series

IBM Cloud is unavailable very often. I had a lot of problems starting the labs just because the tools were not available.

It has many technical issues with IBM Cloud. I couldn't focus on SQL skills from solving IBM connection problems.

the laps not easy to deal with i hope they change it , and also they donot explain everything that exist on laps

DB2 is out of the marketing not many people want to learn it, maybe it's time to upgrade it to something latest

IBM DB2 would not cooperate at all with me during the course. I reached out for help and never received any

Lab is not accessible, In every video feel like machin volume, video should be look like someone teaching

The use of IBM cloud was really frustrating as it was very slow and didn't work most of the time.

As a serial course in the "specialization", it's too simple, just made the learning path longer.

The content is adequate but I found it a bit boring. The classes did not keep my interest.
