In terms of ways to skill up, get involved in communities! R, Tableau, and Python all have robust and organic support in this capacity. I'd recommend getting on Twitter or Mastodon and seeing who is posting about what in your tool(s) of choice by searching on hashtags of #tableau, #sql, #powerbi, and #TidyTuesday. I think Github also launched a brand new community page which will allow you to skill up on their resources quickly. At any rate, I find that if you do community-run projects you will learn faster learning from others than you would on your own in a class and you'll get more value out of it.

I feel like getting good at python now will be very useful.

Any advice? I'm an assistant supervisor in hospitality (4 YOE). Base $12/hr. It’s a tipped position, which makes it $17-$20/hr. No bonus. Minimal benefits. Not allowed to move up in my own department. We live and breathe excel. The job itself isn't stressful, but I feel like I'm wasting my time. I've considered switching industries. I'm good with computers & have 5 YOE in photography (also various adobe applications). I feel stuck and have no idea where to go from here.

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!
