DataOps Certified Professional Training

The DataOps Certified Professional certification is designed for data engineers, analytics engineers, and data operations professionals who want to master the principles and practices of DataOps — bridging the gap between data engineering, analytics, and operations teams. This certification covers data pipeline design and automation, orchestration with Apache Airflow and Prefect, data transformation with dbt, and data quality enforcement using Great Expectations and Soda. Participants build the skills to implement end-to-end DataOps workflows that deliver reliable, observable, and high-quality data at scale.

What is DataOps Certified Professional?

The DataOps Certified Professional (DCP) certification validates an individual's ability to apply DataOps principles across the full data lifecycle — from ingestion and transformation to delivery and monitoring. The program covers both the cultural and technical dimensions of DataOps: collaborative practices between data engineering, analytics, and operations teams; automated testing and CI/CD for data pipelines; lineage tracking with OpenLineage and Monte Carlo; and streaming pipelines with Apache Kafka and Apache Flink. Designed for data-focused professionals working in modern cloud-native and hybrid environments, this certification is recognized as a mark of excellence in data reliability engineering.
