I enjoyed the very specific deliverables along with sample output in the labs and final project. Since I am new to SQL, these were very helpful!

Bien le bonjour à mes pairs, Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement les professeurs DeeDee Colette, Jeff Crume, Manish Kumar, Rav Ahuja, ainsi que toute l'équipe pédagogique d'IBM, pour les cours de la spécialisation "IBM Cybersecurity Analyst Certificate". Cette formation a été extrêmement enrichissante et m'a permis d'acquérir des connaissances solides et précieuses en matière de sécurité des actifs numériques, qui constituent une base réelle pour une carrière lumineuse dans le domaine. Je souhaite souligner la qualité des différents quiz notés et non-notés, les laboratoires pratiques, qui se sont révélés très utiles pour appliquer concrètement les notions apprises. Toutefois, je me permets de proposer une amélioration : introduire une nouvelle variation des questions et des réponses à chaque tentative. Cela rendrait l'exercice encore plus engageant et favoriserait une meilleure maîtrise des concepts. Enfin, je suggère l'ajout d'un cours de synthèse, un "Put it all together", qui permettrait de relier les différents concepts et outils enseignés. Une telle initiative offrirait une vision globale unifiée de la cybersécurité (ce que vous avez fait étant déjà assez exceptionnel) et surtout du poste en lui-même, ce qui serait particulièrement bénéfique pour les apprenants. Merci encore pour cette excellente formation et pour votre dévouement à transmettre des connaissances de grande valeur ! Valère Firmin KAMBO TAMBA

more frustration inconsistencies in this program than I have time to address again. Let's start with the entire program and this course being inconsistent and thrown together cobbled from different courses all through ai videos which is mostly tedious and boring and are usually just surface material. the labs for the most part remain broken which should not be the case for a paid course. The program is way too long 14 courses with five modules a piece which is absurd since most of it is just repetition and module 5 does not need to be there. The final assignments are a disgrace when you AI can't even grade the content accurately giving you zeros for parts you should get full credit in etc. Another issue you have students that have not done the assignment just using one pic like of a car pasted over and over again and some with no filled-out content hanging on there for months?? Where is the Coursera staff to take care of this I don't get paid for it. Truely an awful learning experience and I have taken a few programs already I will stay away from all IBM ones in the future, Awful very awful tedious and broken over all with help from no one.

The final assignment was so aggravating. The virtual environment hardly ran, it reset completely at one point, the instructions were poor.
