Over the past week I've gone through and completed the Make Basics, Foundation and Intermediate assessments. This took probably around 12 hours, but depending on how fast you can proceed through the units, it could be 11-16 hours. The important thing is to go at your own pace though. My thoughts after completing all 3 assessments: - I think it's good for everyone to take Basics and get a feel for how the platform can serve you and what you need to accomplish. - If you're feeling good about Make, definitely continue on to Basics - Intermediate has a ton of niche use cases that everyone might not need, but there are helpful small things in there. It might be easier to consult their forums for specific items you might need to use, than spend the time going through the full Intermediate course, especially if you're time constrained. - To do anything on Make, it costs operations. Whether you're on a free plan or a paid plan, you have an allocation of operations each month (you can add more if you run out). Throughout all 3 assessments, there's guidance on how to optimize your automation scenarios to reduce spending operations (this is good). That said, to me at least, there are perhaps better ways of accomplishing some of the use cases they went over, without consuming operations, especially if you can build, format and use spreadsheets in Excel, Google Sheets, or other non JSON data sources. There were a few exercises, where it felt faster to have the data organized and sorted in spreadsheets than through parsing JSON, although I realize this will vary depending on your use case, and your individual data sources. It looks like there's a separate partner certification process here at Make, although it looks like it covers the same 3 assessments plus additional sales training and enterprise. I'll need to dive deeper and report back on this front. Happy to answer any questions as best I can on the Make Academy coursework though.
