Our recommendation
Google's Business Intelligence certificate, a follow-on that teaches BI skills — modelling data, building pipelines and creating dashboards with SQL, BigQuery and Tableau. It is job-focused and aimed at analysts moving into BI roles. It assumes some data-analytics basics, so it is not a starting point.
Good for: People with data-analytics basics who want to move into business intelligence.
