Looking to learn SQL and/or VBA for careers in financial analysis. Best place to learn?
I currently work in risk management and I'm studying for my CPA. I'm looking to add some supplementary technical knowledge to my repertoire and I've noticed that a lot of risk and financial analysis positions are asking for SQL and VBA knowledge. I would like to start learning, so I have a few questions:
- Where is the best place to learn? Is it better to find a free course online or better to pay to get a certification? Would employers look on that more favourably?
- Are SQL and VBA very different from each other? Or can they be learned concurrently?
- What's the timeline on when I can start being fairly proficient at it? On an average basis, of course, I understand it would differ person to person
