Coding isn’t strictly required for every data analytics role in the U.S., but honestly, having at least some basics in SQL or Python can make a real difference. A lot of entry-level jobs lean more toward tools like Excel, Tableau, or Power BI anyway, so you’re not expected to be a hardcore coder from day one. If you’ve gone through something like the Google Data Analytics course, you already get a pretty balanced skill set to start with. From what I’ve seen, programs like H2K Infosys also mix in just enough coding with hands-on tools, which actually helps when you start dealing with real-world tasks it feels less overwhelming that way.
