really appreciate and thanks for sharing the details with me. Am currently looking into the links you provided.
But just wonder, if I go straight to apply for the TFIP program, because what is taught at AI100 and AI200 would also be covered in the program or is it that the chances of getting into the TFIP is higher if I have the AI100 and AI200 cert?
No problem man! Anyway, your chances of getting into TFIP would be much higher with the AI100 and AI200 cert. This program is quite competitive, and you want to show the assessors that you are so passionate about data science that you have already done some courses on it.
Plus, the best part is that AI200's final project is a Kaggle (
https://www.kaggle.com/) project. If you are not familiar, Kaggle projects are really big deal. If you do well on Kaggle, you can be sure any discerning data science team would want to hire you.
So by taking AI200, you would already have a solid entry in your portfolio. For context, more than 70% of the students with a degree in data analytics/data science don't even have a kaggle project in their portfolio. Heck, many of them don't even know how to approach a Kaggle project.
And so, having this project in your portfolio tend to make you stand out more.
