WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING

• I was very pleasantly surprised by this course, I just wanted to whip through it to get the gist of data studio, but it's very interesting and there's lots of cool tips and tricks, and perhaps most welcome of all, the lessons are concise - a lot of 'tech' courses on udemy are very long, and I'm not against the creators taking their time and including lots of content, but it is difficult to maintain your concentration across 40 hours, especially with a new subject. This was an excellent course.

• Excellent course with a general overview of all the features that Looker Studio has to offer. Concise, simple to understand, great presentation and to the point. Excellent!

• Very thorough and concise course. I feel like I've gained all of the knowledge I need to get started with building effective reports in Looker Studio. I especially appreciated the "Sales Manager" hands-on exercises.

• Really enjoyed this course - having never worked with Looker it was great and gave me all the information i needed for a new role - highly recommend
