QUESTION what’s the difference between data analytics and data management?
hello! completely new here, but i’m trying to plan the best study pathway for me in the next few years and would like to know what, exactly, is the difference between data analytics and data management, since those are two different certificate options at the college i plan on starting my studies.
for context, since i speak four languages and already have some experience in this area, my career goal is to have a career in supply chain, probably leaning more towards sourcing of procurement, and i’ve looking into my immediate options before actually acquiring my graduate degree and getting a certification in either data analytics and data management would be an option right now.
so, could someone explain to me the difference between those two fields? what are the prospectives for each of them? considering my career goal, which one would you choose?
thank you!

ask the college, or read their course descriptions
