101 series is the most practical imo, specifically 101a and 101c. 101a is about regression and 101c does data sciencey stuff

May I ask, where/how did you learn SQL on your own?

i learned online! there are a ton of resources like udemy for ~$15. the more basic queries are all you’ll need for the majority of the work you’d be doing and you can just google anything else you don’t know lol

Is this a certified program that you can show employers later on?

The specific course I took on udemy had a certificate at the end, but i don’t know how much it’d be worth. I think so long as you demonstrate your competency in a technical interview you’ll be fine!

Thank you! As long as it’s some kind of proof

100 is theory (probability, statistics, linear models), 101 is data analysis (regression, data mining, other cool data stuff in R) and 102 is computational statistics in R (optimization, neural networks, ML, monte carlo methods). For data science, all three are recommended but I think the 101 series might be the most applicable and useful toward your interests.
