How can I get into a career in BI and DW?

Published: 18 Oct 2004

I have been an Oracle DBA for the last four years. I did one project in business intelligence -- churn management -- for a telecom company. I learned SAS programming, and then I became SAS certified.

What path would you suggest for me to make a career in data warehousing and business intelligence?
