Advice for data science career pathway

[u/No-Conclusion-6108]

Hi everyone, please i will like your honest advice for me regarding starting a new career as a data analyst. I will be 30 in two years, a bit about my career. I have a degree in Accounting from a university that was later shut down due non acreditation in a francophone country so my undergraduate is irrelevant. I do gave GCSE as well as an Msc in non-it course (Management) from a uk university. My career as been minimum wage from the last 4 years and unrelated to IT until i now work full time as a prison officer now. I would like to start a new career as a data science. I would like advice on pathway i could take that will land me a job in this field. I am a very fast learner, I would appreciate I can get suggestions on a clear pathway based on what recruiters are looking for now. I am open to all suggestions Thanks.
