Kickstart your career in the high-growth field of data architecture. In this program, you’ll learn in-demand skills like data modeling, database design, and enterprise data management to build scalable and secure data systems.
Data architects design, implement, and manage data systems, support analytics, ensure compliance, and drive modernization.
In this program, you’ll gain a strong foundation in data engineering, SQL, and relational databases (RDBMS), while building essential technical skills such as Linux commands, shell scripting, and database administration (DBA). You’ll also develop hands-on experience in key areas of the field, preparing you to work with modern data infrastructure.
You’ll also explore topics like data warehousing, NoSQL databases, and ETL workflows with tools such as Airflow and Kafka. You’ll also work with big data processing using Spark and Hadoop, while covering key areas like data integration, governance, security, privacy, and compliance, ensuring you’re ready to tackle complex data challenges.
When you complete this full program, you’ll have a portfolio of projects and a Professional Certificate from IBM to showcase your expertise. You’ll also earn an IBM digital badge and will gain access to career resources to help you in your job search, including mock interviews and resume support.
