Hello, thanks for your question. I hope the response is helpful.
For Data Science/ML, one first needs Programming Language Proficiency. It is important to gain proficiency in languages Python or R, as these languages are widely used in the data science community. Various courses are available, including specialization courses. Next is Data Manipulation and Visualization. Please familiarize yourself with data manipulation and visualization tools: Master tools like Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, and Seaborn for data manipulation and visualization. These tools facilitate data cleaning, analysis, and visualization. In case, the aim is to go for the BI (Business Intelligence) side, it is important to familiarize yourself with PowerBi or Tableau. Learn to sanitize data, understand the data, and try making KPIs for the same. Effective data manipulation and visualization lead to actionable insights. Further, let me mention Databases and SQL. It is important to learn to work with databases (And SQL) to effectively retrieve and manipulate data. Try covering the Database Management System (DBMS). Machine Learning plays a crucial role in data analysis. Additionally, please learn statistical concepts and mathematical principles, including probability, which form the foundation of data analysis. Also, it is very important to understand what the data represents and what insights you seek as a data scientist. Additionally, there are certifications from recognized platforms such as Microsoft and Coursera. I wish you the best.
