Should I get a masters degree in Computer Science or an Online degree or Self-Study or Go to a Coding Bootcamp?

I am in a weird position. I am 30, and no longer find Accounting interesting. Although I have 4 years in the industry, but I want to transition in a Tech role.

&#x200B;

I am wondering if I should get a masters degree in computer science or should I go to a online school?. If not, I am willing to self study everything I need to become a developer with freecodecamp and other online resources, however, I feel that I will be overlooked because I don't have a BS in CIS.

&#x200B;

Another option is getting a coding bootcamp certificate, I think because I have bachelors in Accounting  this might be  good option. However, I don't know if economically it is work it since I am currently unemployed with 10k in the bank.

Is there any chance you be interested in taking the middle step to a business intelligence / data analyst position? You can absolutely get jobs in those fields writing a lot of code and your experience will be appreciated.

If you took this approach you could probably just learn VBA and SQL at home and then start applying. It’s not sexy work like web development or data science but, it would be a good middle step while you’re learning theory.
