Certifications are critical to keeping tech skills current, but cross-certifying skills carries the ultimate value, according to a recent Global Knowledge study.
how much does a computer engineer make certifications are the most popular worldwide: 27% of respondents said they have a cyber certification and another 25% said they plan to pursue one this year. These certifications are often bolstered when cross-certified with other skills, resulting in a nice pay bump, the report found.
"When you're able to show that you have a validated understanding of the technology you work with, what it does, how it can help a business be more successful, you are going to be a very attractive candidate to either a potential employer or your existing employer," said Zane Schweer, lead researcher for Global Knowledge's IT Skills and Salary report.
The report established that more certifications translates into more money and success, as reported in previous TechRepublic coverage, but the report also highlighted the most popular certifications in the IT world.
