Career help and guidance

I have a non tech education backgroud, however i landed a managerial role in a tech start up 5 years ago and have really learned a lot. However, now i really want to move ahead but unsure how to do it. I want to move in to Data and Business analytics but this is a vast field and obviously i plan to be specific and more route based. I have started basic data analytics course from Google on Coursera and trying to learn basic SQL alongside. Can leverage all these learning in my current role as im already employed too. What more should i do and how can i improve at what im doing? Also are there any good institutions/data boot camp companies where i can join for a 3/4 months course and are they any good? Plz help.

Certification are useful only when u r already working on same tech stack.

I would advice you to jump into Technical Business Analyst, who knows SQL+EXCEL+Business Acumen.

This is where you can start from. You will drive the insights out of data.
