It goes through a good amount of foundational information for IT. It goes with the technical side as well as the soft skills and resume/interview information which are just as important as technical.

Still a great refresher to me and listed in a comprehensive manner which I am thankful for even though I knew some or even a lot of these fundamentals already in a distant and previous life of mine...

It's too good. Well since it is fundamentals, I wouldn't say anything but best part for me is the cuustomer service,

I wish coursera and Google can make a course on customer service full package.

Thank you this course.

This is good learning experience for those starting out in IT or trying gain more learning experience in computers. The course helped introduced me to assembling a computer and using virtual machine for the Qwiklabs.

This is a very good course. I didn't know anything about computers. Now I know the basics. Education is power, and I am ready to take what I've learned to the next level. I can't wait to start working with computers.

Love the way this course flows and that the user can move at his or her own pace. Having successful Google employees with diverse backgrounds and varying education levels teach the course makes every section fresh.

I loved this material, I had somewhat of a background on all of these topics beforehand, but this really touched on fundamentals (as stated in the title). You'll really dive into the IT role with this initial course.
