@Blowjobs pls when u get chance u say something abt this.

which state are you?

Yes, you have to keep retooling/reading. IT is changing and the only way to stay competitive, especially as a consultant, is to know what the latest tech is and make sure you know it. Right out of college, I was programming in a totally different language. Then Java came along and became hot, so I learnt that and got appropriate certifications, and I have been programming in that for the last 14 years or so. And still learning different technologies that will aid me in my job and make me as competitive as possible. one's got no choice but to stay on top of tech. Otherwise, you'll be left behind and not be able to get that next contract. Man needs to put food on table for wifey and kids...LOL!

TheManOfTheYear:
Thanks for this concise reply.
Now I know which path to follow.
But you mentioned you came in a long time ago, how then do you manage to keep up with the IT trend and development over the years??
Did u take extra courses? Cuz IT was still at its infancy back then.


Oga BJ no vex ooo,I'm not trying to derail. I just wanna clarify this IT prospects. After that no more questions. Thanks

Yes, you can certainly change to IT. It's very important to know yourself and determine what you like doing. Do you like problem solving/mathematics? If, so then programming is something you can go into. Otherwise, there are other areas of IT you can delve into. Be it networking, Business Analyst, Database Admin, or even and IT project manager (PM). For PM your degree in BA will come in handy.

Honestly, if you hate math, I will not advice you to go into computer programming. It's very unlikely that you will survive doing it. Do NOT go into a specific field because you heard it pays well. Do it because it's what you like doing.

I'm a business administration bachelor holder.
Can I still change to IT fields for my masters?
What'll you advice me about as a biz administrator?

Thanks nelem.

nelem:

respek boss. really enjoy the way you address some issues even on other travel threads.

You can do your masters in whatever field you choose. You just need to apply to the appropriate school and follow the application process. There are several threads here that will answer any questions you may have - https://www.nairaland.com/travel

Wow...How did you know I hate mathematics tho, I'm also a graphics designer n I'm think of going into database admin.
Pls, anything interesting about business analyst?

Thanks, sir

I'd like not to take away from this wonderful thread. You can PM me with specific questions. You can even google for "Business Analyst".

In summary - A BA is the liaison between the software developer and the end users of the system. The communicate the needs of the users to the developer. They usually have a very good understanding of the business.

Very interesting.
You're right man,one has to stay top of the game.
Even doctors and pilots undergo additional trainings to keep up with the latest trends.. it's normal.

Well-done too Bossman.

i have bsc accounting here, been looking for IT related discipline for msc, About Business Analysis i read about it on Quora, but i made some research i don't think there's pure msc in Business Analysis, i might be wrong tho, i want you to put me right.

My plan is to do something near STEM but am not that good with mathematics, i don't know nothing about programming too..

Look into information systems (its also known as business information systems or management information systems). This course can set you up for a role in business analysis.

ITS OFFICIAL!!!!!!!!!...

LADY K will now be known as Mrs K...

This time yesterday morning, i was so nervous.

it is 5:25am right now. Waking up in our hotel room this morning, i keep smiling watching her sleep, her hair coiled over her face and her 'backside" positioned so that when she farts, the diffusion starts right from my side of the bed . Well, i signed up for this. I haven't seen changes right now except this round, golden looking metal on one of my left hand-fingers closest to the left pinkie finger.

Life is good .

I have a plane to catch later in the evening.. short trip (pics definitely)

i'm a lil bit sober now, i was tipsy yesterday and stained my own cloth.

PS: After the ceremony, phones were not allowed.. too much notifications when she uploaded pictures. and so much calls. We ditched everyone for some alone time to "get drunk", watch spiderman homecoming, play skipbo, lil dancing blah blah blah
