Top Paying IT Certifications

AI Advisory Council

CompTIA officially launched our Artificial Intelligence Advisory Council on Jan. 1, but several of the founding members got a head start last November, meeting for the first time at CompTIA’s Year-End Planning Meeting to discuss and prioritize goals and initiatives. Admittedly, much of the tech talk was complex, but when the members discussed some innovative practical applications for AI and blockchain, and how AI can integrate into the other emerging technologies, it was hard not to get excited about the future. Speaking of which…

The Certification of Data

One of the initiatives AI Council members want CompTIA to explore is the possibility of certifying data created through AI and other processes. CompTIA of course has a tremendous reputation and market share in the certification space (second globally to Microsoft), but that’s mainly people skills. Certifying data is a whole different beast. The problem, AI Council members said, is that most existing data certifiers can’t be objective. They feel that wouldn’t be the case with CompTIA, a vendor-neutral, non-profit organization. We’re not sure if it’s feasible/possible, but it’s another great example of our members thinking outside the box.

Spirit of Collaboration

Toward the end of the YEPM conference, four Advisory Councils (Blockchain, AI, IoT and Drone) packed together in a ballroom to hash out a goal they could work on together: creating a piece of content that showcases all four emerging technologies integrating together in an end-to-end solution. The camaraderie, brainstorming and thought leadership was awesome to see. We’re looking forward to seeing how this shapes up over the next several months. When complete, it would be a great marketing tool for anyone selling technology.

Blockchain Opportunities Seem Limitless

Do a Google image search for “blockchain” and watch how many photos for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies come up. Of course, blockchain is so much more than Bitcoin, an opinion very much shared by members of the Blockchain Advisory Council. Their frustrations with that perception will lead to a slew of initiatives in 2020, including the development of use cases that demonstrate the power of blockchain, a blockchain glossary and training matrix, as well as content designed to dispel the many myths about blockchain in the market. They will complement nicely the recent Blockchain Decision Tree completed by the council
