@iamKierraD What about GCP certifications? I was thinking about GCP data architect

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@iamKierraD Graduated from Gatech with a masters in analytics. It definitely opened the door for me and it was ~ $10k.

@engineering_bae Demonstrate ROI to leadership, find ways to track KPIs for the ROI (time savings, revenue, etc). How are you incorporating it into workflow for whatever you are doing it? Think about AI Governance and Responsible AI, to many people are not focusing on reducing risk just ROI.

@iamKierraD I had to build a personal project (took me 4 months) and get my masters before people looked at me.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@iamKierraD Dang they cast a wide net. My boss was happy I had one good skill R and some experience with a few others.

@chrisalbon 😂 2 days trying to get a package installed in order to build a report. Realized all I needed to do was get off the company VPN. 🙃

@venikunche Everyone is jumping in fast into chatgpt, all it takes is for sensitive data to be leaked. I’m sure there will be a company that inputs customer sensitive data like social security #s. Guardrails need to be put in place. All it takes is a multimillion dollar mistake to hit you.

@DataKimist While I like what I’ve learned in my courses for my masters in analytics, I understand the need for degrees to become more specialized with statistics and use of up to date tech.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@DataKimist As an aspiring data professional I have seen how underrated this is. Coding in itself doesn’t necessarily help anyone unless you are becoming a developer or software engineer. Coding is a tool to decipher through data to get an answer to a question. Domain knowledge is crucial.

@Uniquely_M0 @iamKierraD Not gonna lie Scala is pretty dope.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@Uniquely_M0 @iamKierraD It’s fine so far as long as you have a good team for project. Yea we use some JavaScript with D3 and some Scala within Databricks. Not too bad, but I wouldn’t take this with any other course.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@Uniquely_M0 @iamKierraD I did the same thing. Currently taking it, it’s my class before capstone.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@Uniquely_M0 @iamKierraD Yes, I’m at Gatech and in the OMSA program.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@iamKierraD Whoosh…thought I typed “what” instead of “why”. Just noticed that it autocorrected.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@iamKierraD Why school?

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@iamKierraD So far so good, all online. Got to work with a variety of languages (scala, Python, R). Give you a choice of 3 tracks: business, analytical tools, https://t.co/wSlM9W6vjc take classes from 3 departments: business, computer science, and statistics.

@chrisalbon I would look at more than just price. Policies have impacted adoption. Major exchanges that hold the most liquidity have also complied with sanctions. This undermines Russians from moving their money into crypto.

[Will Torres @TorresOnTech]

@iamKierraD Finishing up my Masters in Analytics. My class just started Tableau, hoping to get my certification this month in it.
