What are the differences between a certificate of completion and a certificate of achievement?
365 Data Science awards ACCREDITED
AI and data science certification:
365 Data Science is the #1 highest-rated and most reviewed AI & data learning platform on Trustpilot—100% online.
We once issued a certificate of completion to each student who had completed all video lessons, exercises, and assignments in the program. You didn’t need to pass a rigorous exam to be eligible for this certificate; we only asked that you review all course materials available.
365 Data Science now issues accredited certificates of achievement to match current industry expectations. These certificates are earned by passing rigorous exams and are available as:
- Course Certificates
- Career Track Certificates
If you’re ready to earn an accredited certificate, sign up to start your first course today.
Are both certificates accredited?
Yes. Both are official 365 Data Science credentials, have no expiration date, and are accredited to serve as proof of your learning and skills.
The platform is accredited by ADaSci (Association of Data Scientists), GAOTE, ELQN, the National Registry for CPE credits, the Institute of Analytics, and EAHEA.
365 Data Science certificates display the official seals from all these organizations.
