I enjoyed while doing this course. This has given the exposure to HR related topics and helped me to understand what metrics are involved to perform the HR functions and how to deal with the problems.

I love the course, it was very insightful eye opening on how to approach HR issues such as use of metrics for analysing data. It made HR easy for me to advise in decision making through evident data,

the course is good and providing theoretical knowledge. I was expecting more like how we can practically create matrix and analyze it with example.

This course is a good introduction to metics and data anaytics. If you're lighly familiar with People Analytics, you'll likely not need this course.

Lack of storytelling - missing real life examples to show impact

Course is very 'old fashioned' not what you expect from an online e-learning in 2022

Course is good. But not so informative. Mostly relies on external articles and couldn't cover analytics tools and technologies.

I was a great course. I however think the voiceover pattern of delivering the course was not the best.

Tests are based solely on final video in each module so reading materials seem disjointed from the course. Two reading links open 404 page not found and 2 videos (not videos for tests) open LinkedIn learning, which is a competitor of Coursers and isn’t free. While this is an overview, this course isn’t going to be friendly for anyone who hasn’t worked in corporate America and doesn’t have a basic sense of HR programs. So I wouldn’t say this is a beginner course for those looking to become HR analysts. Also some of the definitions were absurd and not universal (the way data, metric, soft metric, hard metric, and analytics were defined.) I would skip this course.

This certificate course may be helpful for someone who is wondering if they would like to take their career in this direction. The certification is not substantial enough to provide an experienced person with validation of their abilities, fill in gaps in experience towards gaining a promotion, or new knowledge, skills, and abilities a novice could use to confidently apply for a HR Analyst job.

There is an opportunity for UCI to, at a minimum, define what the certificate might convey to employers as well as learners, clean up their misspellings and punctuation, and review their quiz answers and feedback for accuracy and clarity.

The course length was good. But I feel the "readings" could've been skipped or reduced. The lecture content could've been divided into 2-3 parts perhaps, just so everything isn't pushed into 1 video. Additionally, I found the lectures to be not very helpful The lecturer missed some points and did not explain the concepts properly. Lastly, the quiz questions were quite different from what the lecturer was teaching us. This is why I felt there was a gap b/w what she taught and what we were tested on. I feel the course could be improved significantly, if you work on these areas.

Some of the articles were not the latest and must have left out a lot of new information which might have come in recent times. Example:- Currently, Year 2024 is going on and some of the articles which were provided for reading were from the year 2016 or 2015 which I didn't expected at all. Keeping up the with new info and articles might create an edge from all the other competitors out their in the market.

This is a basic course for someone who has no understanding of People analytics previously, but if you have a theoretical understanding of people analytics and looking for some workable frameworks, project templates, and ways of collecting data and recording it in a way that would lead to developing metrics and analytics based in that data this course does not offer that.
