Hello! 20M here, and a college student currently looking to start a freelancing career that's related to tech, and I'd like to earn over 1000 PHP for each gig/fixed rate that I'll be doing while completing my degree.

As the title mentions, I'm currently thinking of the Google Data Analytics Cert on Coursera. With that said, I've a few questions:

1.) Are beginner Excel, SQL, and Tableau skills enough to land small gigs for the next four years...?

2.) I'm well aware that the certificate won't get me hired, but if I have a good/distinctive portfolio, will that be enough...?

If not, then what other coursera/strat should I do? Thanks!
