Answer 1

SQL and Python languages are used a lot, learn basics and master them over time.

You should try to play with relational databses like postgreSQL and MySQL at first. After that, go try play with some non relational databses like MongoDB.

Now that you have seen what's up, you have to learn theory. For example, you need to know what is normalisation and how to do it properly. What is warehouse. What is ETL process. How to do business intelligence and analytics. After that you should learn how to use tools like Pentaho and Microsoft BI, etc.

I might be wrong but without some kind of degree it might be a bit harder to find a job in this field. Not because one can't learn it on his own, but because data is very sensitive and it might be dangerous to entrust it in hands of someone without some strong background.
