ENROLL FOR THE 100% ONLINE MICROSOFT
AZURE CERTIFIED DATA & AI TRACK

Techionista Academy ♥ Microsoft

Do you also find the world of Data & AI so fascinating? And are you ready for a new career? Then the brand new Microsoft Azure Certified Data & AI track from the Techionista Academy is your chance! Together with Microsoft, we have put together a 100% online course (excluding holidays: 2 days in May and 4 weeks in the summer), or 22 weeks part-time (excluding holidays: 2 days in May, 4 weeks in the summer and 2 weeks in October) for a job in Tech. After this training – which will be given in English – you will have obtained the following three Microsoft certificates: Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900), Analyzing Data with Microsoft Power BI (DA-100), and Data Engineering on Microsoft Azure (DP-203). Previously, there were two certificates (DP-200 and DP-201) instead of the latter (DP-203). But Microsoft has decided to merge these two into one new certificate. We also train you on coding with Python, machine learning and a package of soft skills. This means you are ready for a job as a (junior) data professional, data engineer, data analyst, business intelligence professional, or data & AI consultant. And don’t worry … you don’t do it alone. You will work at home, but you will do it together with your fellow students and our coaches and trainers who will guide you to the finish line. You got this! You can register now without obligation, to start full-time or part-time on May 11th, 2021 with start guarantee. Do you want to start later? The next tracks start on September 28th and November 9th 2021.

8719 Vacancies in Data & AI

This is not the first time that Techionista and Microsoft have organized an academy together. We have now done this several times. And with success: 95% of the women we trained are now working in a data environment and IT. For example, check the story of these former candidates. We do not only train in hard skills; we also support you with application and pitch training. In this way, you will appear as good as possible during job interviews. Good to know: in January of this year we investigated how many open vacancies there were in Data & AI in the Netherlands at that time. There were no fewer than 8,719 vacancies for data analysts, data engineers, AI and BI specialists.

Hard, Soft and Business Skills

We believe in a combination of hard, soft and business skills. That’s why you don’t just learn everything that has to do with data science: from programming languages like Python to creating data models with Power BI; you also receive lessons from experienced personal branding experts. This way you learn how to translate your strengths and skills into a perfect CV and how to conduct a perfect job interview, for example. To properly prepare you for the Microsoft exams, we use the official MOC material (Microsoft Official Courseware) during our training sessions. This means that you will have access to e-books with accompanying practical exercises for the four Microsoft certificates for which you will be taking exams. And the nice thing is that you continue to have unlimited access to this knowledge that is kept up to date by Microsoft; also well after this training. In addition, we prepare you well for the exams through additional exercises. All these training courses are given by Microsoft Certified trainers.

During this business case, you use all your learned data science, business intelligence and data engineering skills to tackle problems and end with a conclusion or solutions.

Speed dating with companies

During the training, we will put you in touch with interested companies. Sometimes this leads to digital speed dates. That works incredibly well. Because you talk to different companies, you get a much faster idea of where you would fit well; you practice giving your quick pitch (which of course we also train you in), and last but certainly not least: it can lead to a match! And it would be nice if you completed the training, with a first job offer already in your pocket.
