When you first think about learning Python and becoming a Python developer you must have thought or heard about Python certification. I started my career as a QA engineer and I was in the same situation as you. I’ll answer the “Is It Worth It To Do A Python Certification?” question based on my personal experience in this post!

Is It Worth It To Do A Python Certification?

Yes, but whether or not a Python certification is worth it depends on your goals and the specific certification you are considering.

Certification can demonstrate a level of knowledge and proficiency in the language, which can be beneficial for Python beginners seeking jobs or those looking to advance in their careers.

However, I can tell you from my own personal experience, employers value real-world experience and a portfolio of projects so gaining hands-on experience through personal projects and internships is way more important than just having a Python certification.

Python Training: Why You Shouldn’t Attend It (3 Important Reasons)

Good afternoon, Roberts Greibers here, and in this post I’m going to expose the awful truth about python training in NYC (New York City) and also all over the world. 

I’ve been working professionally as a Python developer for more than 5 years and now (see my Linkedin here) I’m also helping people who are in a similar position I was when I first started – to become Python developers. (see a cut from a LIVE mentoring call)

Ever since I started to lean more into the field of helping people, I realized how many horror stories are out there about a common Python training course. 

Every now and then I hear a new story, a new shocking price of a training course, and now it’s no surprise to me that there is a lack of good Python developers out there. 

I used to be a quality assurance engineer (manual tester) – testing website projects and apps so I totally get that a lot of people want to move away from their current job and get into more profitable positions like becoming a Python/Django developer.  

Maybe you’re somebody who wants to become a Python developer, be more independent, more free from a typical 9-5 job, maybe even work remotely from anywhere in the world, and have a higher income than what you’re used to. 

So if that’s you, I want to give you a little bit of a counterbalance to all the wild claims that all these Python training courses out there are currently making.
