QuerySurge Launches Certification Program

NEW YORK, May 21, 2020 — QuerySurge, a smart data testing solution that automates the validation and testing of big data, announced the launch of its new certification program.

In this time of job instability and high unemployment, there are 3 major reasons to pursue certifications: (1) certifications are a badge of excellence, (2) they differentiate you from others who do not have these verifiable skills (3) they keep you current.

“Our new professional certification, along with digital badge, provides secure, verifiable evidence of skills and expertise that can be easily shared with professional networks”, said Eric Smyth, Director of Alliances. “Our certification process is providing everything needed to advance testers’ skillsets – free self-paced training, a free installation of QuerySurge, the certification exam and a digital badge to display on LinkedIn or any social media of their choosing”.

Partnering with Credly, the digital credential leader, QuerySurge Certified Practitioners will earn digital badges hosted on Credly’s Acclaim platform. These badges represent a deep understanding of how to utilize QuerySurge to conduct data validation & testing. Certified Practitioners will have demonstrated the ability to set up connections, create and execute tests that compare source and target data stores, analyze results and identify bad data patterns and data anomalies.

Badge holders can use this verified record of their specific skills and knowledge to differentiate themselves from other professionals in the field of testing. Employers can, in turn, identify holders of these in-demand credentials as those who have verified data testing skills and expertise using QuerySurge.

“A verified data validation/testing skillset — specifically around automating DataOps pipelines — is one the hottest and most in-demand skills in the testing arena today,” said Bill Hayduk, CEO of QuerySurge’s parent company, RTTS. “By providing digital certifications to those who pass our exam, it is clearly demonstrating the unique skills that this badge holder brings to the table.”
