Even a CA at a Public Accounting Firm or a big company deals with huge amounts of data to make decisions for their clients so why should they not go for data analytics ? Firms require XA’s also to make data deiven decisions. A CA!s role is also changing and you should know as you are very experienced.

Thanks for taking a Bcom trn into Data analyst

[prateekrajput]

can't express in words how helpfull it is

[sudhirsaleakanomad]

Inspirational:) and yes this is how it is going to be. Conventional courses after 10th in my days i.e. in 1991 were basically Science, Arts & Commerce. But now its going to be skilled based and job based learning and no classrooms needed as we have so many open sources online to learn from.

And, like he mentioned the practical implementation of what you know or have learned is what will matter to grab a job and i.e. Projects.

Thanks for sharing your story Hitesh and all the best for your career.👍🙏🏼👍🙏🏼
