About the Certification

The CBIP is the industry's most in demand credential for Data Professionals, along with the CDP-Certified Data Professional in Data Management. Significant promotions and salary increments have been granted to these credential holders.

BI is an umbrella term that includes the applications, infrastructure and tools, and best practices that enable access to and analysis of information to improve and optimize decisions and performance. BI represents the tools and systems that play a key role in the strategic planning process within a corporation. These BI systems allow a company to gather, store, access and analyze corporate data to aid in decision-making.

TDWI provides many bench-marking surveys and self assessment tools for organizations to see what stage of readiness or level of maturity in Business Intelligence or Data Analytics (Data Science) have been reached.
