This is the opening course in Google's Business Intelligence Certificate, and it earns that placement by focusing on the role itself before the tools: what a BI professional actually does inside an organization, and how dashboards and real-time data translate into decisions people act on. It's an advanced-level course, so it moves briskly through concepts a newcomer to data work might need extra time with.
Who it's for
Learners aiming at entry-level BI roles, or analysts who want to formalize stakeholder communication and data-driven decision-making skills they've picked up informally.
Core skills covered
- Data integration, modeling, and compilation for reporting
- Building dashboards that support business process improvement
- Translating business metrics into a plan of execution
It's one of Coursera's more heavily trafficked BI offerings, with over 211,536 learners enrolled — a useful signal for anyone weighing whether this path is worth the time.
About this course
This is the first of four courses in the Google Business Intelligence Certificate, which will help develop the skills needed to apply for entry-level roles as a business intelligence (BI) professional.
