Abstract:
The value of training for a data sciences professional is in the eye of the beholder. And dependent on the scope and breadth of that training and the cost and time frame of that training. Value for the employee may differ from value for the employer. The lens is different and value may depend on what lens you look through. Training can be online or on-site, short term with specific focus or longer term with greater breadth and less depth. Career goals should also be considered when determining value. Certification in Spark is not valuable if you do not want to work with Spark. A PhD in management psychology is not as valuable if you do not want to manage people. The fact that training (both certification and degree programs) is valuable is not debatable. Maximizing that value for both employee and employer is always a preferable option. But is it realistic?
