How do I get my whole team data and AI certified?

Getting an entire team certified is a program, not a one-off exam. Databricks Academy provides the training paths, learning formats, hands-on labs, and certification vouchers to upskill a workforce and validate skills at scale, with role-based paths so each person learns what is relevant and management visibility so enablement leads can track progress across the team.

Why Databricks Academy for certifying a whole team

• Multiple learning formats in one program.

Learners pick the format that matches the moment.
• Role-based learning paths across the team. Structured paths are tailored to roles including data engineers, machine learning engineers, data analysts, platform administrators, and business analysts. Each role has beginner, intermediate, and advanced courses, so a whole team can train in parallel on what is relevant to each person.
• Certifications to validate skills.
