Did it get added to your credly account? Usually with all of my other badges and ACE credits it would automatically show up on my profile but this one didn't.

  • The CompTIA site now has a separate category for Data and Analytics(and it only contains DATA+) so I suspect that they plan to develop additional(more advanced) certs in those categories

Man, I am on fire with predictions!

CompTIA Press Release

Quote:CompTIA, the nonprofit association for the information technology (IT) industry and workforce, announced today it will create additional certifications and learning resources to serve the fast-growing market for data skills.

The association’s first data-specific credential, CompTIA Data+, will launch this quarter. CompTIA Data+ is an early-career data analytics certification for professionals tasked with developing and promoting data-driven business decision-making.

Additional new certifications and learning materials centered on data knowledge and skills will be introduced beginning in 2023, with resources available for all career levels – early (CompTIA Data Foundations), intermediate for data analytics (CompTIA Data+) and data systems (CompTIA DataSys+) and advanced data science (CompTIA DataSci+).
