Choose the additional skill based on the work you want to do. Analytics, accounting/finance, marketing, communications, sales, event management, technology, languages or legal/business studies can all be useful. The credential name matters less than whether you can apply the skill. For example, an analytics certificate is more valuable when it leads to a portfolio project, and a communications minor matters more when you can show strong writing and media work. Avoid collecting credentials without a clear purpose. A focused combination such as sport management plus data, finance or communications can make your profile easier for an employer to understand.
