Hi Harshal,

While there is no single formal pathway to becoming a data scientist, exploring topics like business analytics and cloud management can be a starting point. To become a data scientist, you will need to have strong analytical and mathematical skills. You should be able to understand and work with complex data sets. Additionally, you should be able to use statistical software packages and be familiar with programming languages such as Python or R.

Additionally training on the following can be a good start:

1) Hadoop platform: With the volume of data required for today’s solutions, courses in Hadoop help budding data scientists
learn how to quickly convey data to various points on a system and perform data exploration, data filtration or data sampling.
2) Apache Spark: Just as with Hadoop, this is a big data computation framework that helps run complicated algorithms faster.
3) Machine learning: Courses on machine learning, specifically natural language processing (NLP), deep neural networks and
computer vision.
4) Data visualization: To learn how to visualize data through new tools such as PowerBI, courses in data visualization help students learn how to take data and turn it into actionable insights to solve specific business problems.

You can follow below sequence of learning
Python
Data Analysis
Machine learning principle and Various models.
Cloud Computing esp. ML on Cloud (select any GCP or Azure or AWS)

Hope that helps and would be happy to answer any follow up query that you might have.
