How to start and where to start?

#1

Hi All,

I am a new aspirant in Analytics. I have close to 5 year exp in IT, have worked on few tools and PL/SQL, hence was looking forward for industry recognised courses. Have few queries regarding approach i should make to step into this field

  1. Should i take a break in my carrier and do full time analytics course like - Analytics from Praxis Business School or should i go for part time course like courses - IIM B, ISB hyderabad, Great lake Institute, Narsee Monjee BA course? And does it make much difference (full vs part time)?

  2. I have applied for few of these courses
    Great Lake - PGPBA
    Narsee Monjee - Certificate in Business Analytics for Executives

Any heads up from alumni of these certified courses about the program and how should i prepare to get into it would be great help for me.

Regards,
Shubham

I wouldn’t say the part-time course will give you whole experiential practice and close face-to-face offline discussion in a group. But at least it can go in parallel with your career which means the real market problem can be considered within your study. It cannot be thought separately I think…
