“For over a decade, there’s been this Gold Rush of data, where everyone’s like, ‘let’s mine as much as possible.’ And then they get their hands on it and don’t know what to do with it.” That’s where data analytics comes in.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 36% growth rate in data science-related occupations by 2030. This estimated growth represents the seismic shift for companies nationwide toward data-focused decision-making versus feeling-based decision-making. Each job will require skills in data analytics, the art of collecting, understanding, and using data to make predictions for the future and prescribe solutions for current bottlenecks. Check out my talk with Ciabarra and Mark Van de Wiel, Fivetran's Field CTO, about how to surf the data tsunami. 🏄♂️
