Need some advice - interested in upskilling and getting out of International Tax, currently CPA Big4 Senior with just over 4yoe.

Looking at job descriptions and digging around, I think Finance Transformation and ERP consulting are lucrative and interest me. I have access to all the online academies via work.

On my list - Tableau, PowerBI, SQL, NetSuite, Financial Modeling course, SAP/Oracle. Tips? Advice? Guidance? I reached out internally but didn't go anywhere because my background. Thanks!
