Big Data Certification E20-007

Dear ALL,

I'm willing to start an EMC certification (preparation and exam),

Big Data certification E20-007 is it really worthy ?

Regards,

Mike

Mike,

Thanks for your interest in achieving the Data Science Associate level certification.  The E20-007 exam is based on the Data Science and Big Data Analytics course.  In addition to introducing students to several analytic tools and techniques, this course often has a transformational effect on how the students will return to their jobs or progress in their careers.   If you have not already viewed the Anthony Dutra interview, who has obtained the certification, please check out the video:   https://community.emc.com/message/928057

Also, upon passing the E20-007 exam, you can then consider obtaining the Data Scientist, Advanced Analytics Specialist (EMCDS) Certification.  More details on both certifications and the associated courses can be found here:   https://education.emc.com/cust/campaign/data_science.aspx

Hi Barry

I am also in a similar situation. I have been attending classes in preparation for January 2019 E20-007 exam and by retiring, does it mean this exam will no longer be offered in 2019 onwards or there will be an equivalent exam?

The course content of the Data Science and Big Data Analytics was updated in 2018  The new training assets are referred to as Data Science and Big Data Analytics v2.  As you apparently are aware, the E20-007 exam is retiring December 28, 2018.    The new exam is described at the above link.

Let me know if you need any other details.

Hi Pana, you can find a list of testing centers here; there look to be 3 in the Windhoek, Namibia area. You can also select to take this exam remotely if you have the right testing environment. More details on that can be found here.

The fee is $200 USD

Best of luck!
