Yes, I have taken the class and it was ok. The instructor for my class focused on people who work with large datasets. For example, their was a student in the class who routinely worked with a dataset that had more than 1 million records. I think that he got a lot more out of the class than I did. I do not normally work with large datasets so I found the class to be of minimal benefit to me.
