87 percent of IT professionals worldwide hold at least one certification according to respondents in 2019. Interestingly enough, North America is below the global average with only 85 percent of respondents answering as such.
IT certifications are influential in hiring decisions
An IT certification is an honorific document demonstrating a professional’s competency in a certain aspect of technology. IT certifications help to boost the credibility and marketability of related IT skills. More than 60 percent of U.S. companies that place high value in the understanding and utilization of technology consider IT certifications to be very valuable in their hiring process. On a global scale, the ratio of certified to non-certified IT professionals are highest in Asia-Pacific and Latin America, with certified IT professionals in these regions constituting more than 90 percent of the IT workforce.
Unequal representation of female workers in tech
Although IT industry employees are in high demand, diversity within the industry is surprisingly low as most employees in tech companies worldwide are male. Women account for less than ten percent of software developers worldwide and only a quarter of all employees in computer and mathematical occupations in the United States.
