Obtaining a Data Science Certification is a great way to gain experience and knowledge in data science without the time and expense of earning a degree. It is not always necessary to have a degree in data science or a post-graduate degree to be a great data scientist. Hands-on coursework with projects validating one’s practical skills are increasingly accepted by hiring managers and research institutes alike in lieu of a formal degree in data science.
‘Corporate AI Adoption Creates Trillions in Value Globally’ - WSJ
With an increasing worldwide demand to hire data scientists and a considerable cost and shortage of supply of data scientists has created a supply-side gap.
AI could potentially deliver an additional global economic activity of around US$13TN by 2030, or about 16% higher cumulative GDP compared with today; this amounts to about 1.2% additional GDP growth per year.
