Our opinion
ToggleDataquestWith their focus on data skills, Dataquest is a great platform for students looking to learn about data science, and data engineering. They offer a variety of courses, combined with practice projects that help beginners navigate the data science world, which is why we recommend Dataquest for beginners in particular.
GetSmartergetsmarter offers a selection of high quality courses, in collaboration with some of the most prestigious universities worldwide. We particularly like the impressive roster of partners they work with. If you want to take their courses, you shouldn't be on a tight budget though, since the prices are fairly steep, which is understandable when you look at their partner universities, but nevertheless might be unaffordable for many. We therefore recommend getsmarter to professionals that want to learn new skills, and that have the disposable budget to afford their courses.
