Looking to transition to PE

I am a manager at a big 4 in the ITDD deals practice. I have around 10 years of experience in the IT advisory space and and looking to apply for an EMBA next year. Would be great to understand what would be the ideal pathway to transition to an investment role at a PE firm. My masters is in information systems management
