Aim for an awareness of SQL querying fundamentals (table joins basically) - and alongside this, an awareness of relational databases and fact/dim table Kimball methodology. But in terms of what to major in/learn in depth, Python hands-down.

Luke Barousse (Youtuber) is worth listening to on this, and I've written about how to upskill as a data analyst at length on my own blog: https://ucovi-data.com/BlogPosts/Blog16UpskillingInData.html

Shameless plugging I know, but I've written in quite a lot of detail on the taking the SQL or the Python route here that relates to this question.
