What factors are motivating IT professionals to seek out certification in such large numbers?
Technology professionals are looking to open doors and add to their credentials by combining IT and non-IT certifications. For example, combining a technical Teradata certification with a project management certification could result in qualification as a project manager for a Teradata system. That’s certainly something that’s been increasing over the last 10 years. It goes back to the fact that degrees are not necessarily a proxy for really good skills.
