I would say that logical problem-solving skills and statistics are good skills to have for either.
There are free courses available:

In my opinion, it is actually really good, but I 100 percent agree on how the coding exercises could use some work, more specifically some clearer instruction. I am currently loving the blockchain architecture portion. If you are interested here are some other courses if I have done that are super professional:

I am working on incubating my own blockchain company so I have been scouring the internet to learn more.
