Tan Duong Phuc rated 5 out of 5 stars

My University offers many courses related to analytics to help students get involved in data analytics, business analysis, and financial analysis. Furthermore, the teachers are very helpful when it comes to the difficult things that you don't know. I highly recommend people to take a chance to get involved in such an amazing experience.
