Data Science Certifications & How to get Certified:

With increasing demand in data analytics and data solving, there has been an increase in the number of jobs for data science professionals. This has further spiked the number of data science certification vendors. According to a survey by Correlation one, there is still a gap of 650000 data scientists in the industry, and in the next 3 years, it is going to increase by 34% more, as compared to the 2016 census. So, to gain an edge over peers and have a proven ability on the knowledge of data science, it is slowly becoming authenticated to have a certification on data science. Even though Data Science Certification courses differ from one another in many aspects, the basic test criteria will be on foundational & theoretical aspects of data science while some may assess based on the hands-on experience, a candidate has on basic and advanced methods of real-world data science challenges.

In spite of numerous questions & discussions on which data science certification is more valuable, here is the list of top data science certifications:
