Coursera: Google & IBM. I am looking for Beginners guide

[mdel210201]

In that case, I think the IBM certs are largely the same as (but perhaps slightly more advanced than) the Google ones. The Google ones are intended to be taken by "everyone" while the IBM ones seem less so.

I would take the Google IT Support Professional certificate before: IBM Cybersecurity or Full Stack Cloud Developer. I don't think there will be much overlap, but the subjects should build on one another.

Take the Google Data Analyst certificate before taking any of the IBM Data Analyst/Science/Engineering certificates. There will probably be significant overlap with these. The IBM ones say you don't need prior programming experience, but you might want to go through at least some of https://www.py4e.com/ to familiarize yourself anyway. Programming can be tricky, especially without a tech background.

The others are probably just take whenever.

Thank you so much for all that!  It is a big help.
