Comment on 3 Roles in Web Analytics by Carole Mahoney

Anything is possible Tim, and I believe you are spot in that overall, any analyst needs to have some level of understanding and experience in all 3. But like with anything, you will find some lean towards one over the other as to what they do best. The larger the initiative, the more data, the more hands on deck- who are specialists, will be needed.

The trick to data is the framework you use for analysis. IMO

Hi,
I have been a high school math teacher for 14 years and am changing careers. All the jobs for web analyst require experience. How do I gain experience after I complete my certification at UCI? There are so many openings but they all require experience. Would appreciate any advice you could give in this matter? Thank you.
