Is it worth getting tableau certified if I'm not technical? It's a free opportunity, but I can also get certified or train in other things with my time. If no, what's a valuable certification?

You doing the certification Qualified Associate Tableau training? Getting the fee paid for in assuming?

Yup, something like that

Do you know of any other valuable certifications for consultants?

Nice to have a Green Belt. Makes you a bit more versatile. Also gives you some leeway on getting out of a Project Management cert.

^probably a dumb question that I could just google. But how do you get the green belt? Do you need formal education credits or can you just take an exam?

Green and black belt require you to complete a project to address some type of inefficiency that, after implemention, saves the organization $x (I forget the thresholds, $100k, $500k for black, something like that). Regarding Tableau,I don't know if it's complicated enough that a certification is warranted. Seems pretty straightforward.

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking.

Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?

I once was a CISA… I have no IT background, no IT degrees (2 ACCT degrees tho); never did/saw a shred of an IT audit/assurance work/client/OTJ training of any kind. Forced by employer to choose CISA vs CPA, CISA was way more feasible at the time. I passed 1st try. My firm had zero IT work. So all my CPE reqs lapsed, and my cert expired w/ zero resume material to show for it. I see IT Auditors paid WAY more. I’d love that! I’d re-sit. But idk my head from my ass about practical application.
