@Ejiod
Deep insights!

What did you study at the
MSc and Phd levels?

Nice thread.

Cheers.
Apologies on late response. Was scrolling and saw this.
MSc was Cell Biology &Genetics with specialty in bioinformatics.
PhD ….. nahhhhh
If I’m to advise anyone now! Never run any masters of science or Art or Engineering. Just take a professional masters..
MBA!!!!!!! or any professional masters. Or focus on professional certification

hello special greetings to you all, stubbled across this tread while searching for more info on this topic......it's seems the west, Lagos in particular got most of the data analyst and scientist. I am based in pH. if you are in pH with relavant material to share let's connect. the journey has just began for me.


I’m in Port Harcourt too...

Hmmmmm it depends.
YouTube now is the best university right now.
My advice is to click on the search bar and type “ Excel for beginners “ you will get tones of good classes there.

Great thread Ejiod.

Well done.

I’m just confused

I got a diploma on Information technology and cyber law from SIIT an online school

But the practical part from the lecture videos is making me confused

I think I have to switch to Data science because I studied statistics

Please don't be confused. Data Analytics is a very broad field and still growing, decide on your area of specialization and select your domain to move faster.
Example 1
If you studied health related courses, your domain should be health and available job titles are Health Data analyst, Health Record Analyst etc.
Decide on a domain or area of specialization to make study easy and progress faster.

I studied statistics
Do you think I should go for the Data science or stick to cyber security?

Ethical hacking

Ethical hacking

It is not about what you studied.
Why did you study Statistics and not Engineering or Computer Science.
It's about your personality build up.
Both Courses will require deep Programming skills and many soft skills.
Networking skills across different platforms is a most for Cyber Security etc.

Please do a little research on the requirement for each and compare it with your personality build up.
Any one you choose will require time to master the content and receive the rewards.

Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by shedo4sure: 10:16pm On Nov 25, 2021
Good evening house. I'm self learning machine learning with python but I recently got a scholarship to study cyber security at a computer training institute. Before now, I've seen someone who claims to be an ML Engineer + a pentester. He talked about how he was able to build ML models to carry out pentesting. I'm willing to follow his footsteps, but I don't really know how to go about it. Is there anyway I can balance learning Cyber security(Ethical Hacking) and Machine learning?

Which site did you use for your excel training? I want to start with learning excel.
. I registered for Sidehustleng training, so it is like a boot camp. FROM Excel to PowerBI. You can check out YouTube for video tutorials, there are tons of Excel channels

Hello Ejiod!
Are the changes a great departure from things already in this thread?
if yes, then a new thread may be great; and if not, then may I suggest that you just make it a continuation of this already awesome thread?
Whatever you decide on will be anticipated with excitement, no doubt.
We eagerly await!

Forgot to mention. For anyone trying to dive deep into using Tableau but tucked with the public version that is limited. There is work around this.
Currently, Tableau gives out professional versions to students for free. We all know the professional version is $850 but as a student whether masters or undergraduate you get it free.

Check Turing College, Udacity, DataCamp, and Lambda School Data Science curriculum.

It will guide you on what you need to learn to be a data analyst or scientist.
