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.
PluralsightPluralsight is one of the online learning platform with a clear focus on helping companies upskill their employees with tech skills. While they do offer their course catalog to consumers as well, many of their main strengths come into play with enterprise customers. We particularly like their extensive library of courses, with a lot of them focussing on very specific technical topics that other platforms might not even have resources for. That means that Pluralsight is a great platform for companies looking to upskill employees and more advanced techies trying to learn new skills. As a beginner, you might be a bit overwhelmed on Pluralsight.
