The TensorFlow Developer Certificate exam is celebrating its first anniversary with a big milestone: more than 3,000 people have passed the exam! Successful test takers received the official TensorFlow Developer Certificate and badge. They also had the opportunity to showcase their skill set on social networks such as LinkedIn and the TensorFlow Certificate Network, where recruiters are able to seek out entry-level TensorFlow developers.

The TF Certificate program bridges the gap between the demand from companies for data-knowledgeable, production ML-capable engineers -- and the students and developers around the world interested in getting a job in ML.

The goal of this program is to provide developers around the world with the opportunity to demonstrate their skills in ML in an increasingly AI-driven global job market. This is a foundational certificate for students, developers, and data scientists who want to demonstrate practical machine learning skills through building and training basic models using TensorFlow.

We’ve followed up with folks who have taken the exam to understand the impact on their professional lives.

Fran shared, “Lost my job due to COVID 1 month before taking the exam, hired by Google in August, I think this cert helped a lot for my resume to be selected for interviews :)“

Fran is now a Conversational AI engineer, and has been working at Google for over 6 months.

Tia shared, “I was a stay-at-home mom when I started to learn Machine Learning at Google Bangkit Academy back in 2020. Bangkit supported us to take TF Certification and with this certificate, I was able to get back to work after years of hiatus. My current role is Machine Learning Curriculum Developer in Dicoding, an online technology education platform in Indonesia.”
