Unprecedented Demand for Kubernetes Skills
No matter the geography, enterprises are increasingly embracing cloud-native solutions that include agile, time- and cost-saving Kubernetes strategies. However, the high degree of infrastructure automation and operations skills needed to meet customer demand fall short. The recently released Dice Tech Job Report for 2020 highlights an 82% increase in job demand for individuals with Kubernetes skills over the past year alone. Dice predicts that the demand for Kubernetes skills will enjoy a projected growth rate of more than 67% over the next ten years. Additionally, over just the past year, Rancher has experienced a 250% increase in its Rodeo and Master Class registrations, highlighting practitioners’ desire to build competencies in Kubernetes concepts/architectures and hands-on Rancher skills.

Meeting this head-on, Rancher is launching Rancher Academy, a professional, no-cost, zero obligation certification program centered on empowering commercial customers and the open source community to be successful with Kubernetes and Rancher.
“This Rancher certification is designed to help Kubernetes practitioners demonstrate their knowledge and competence with Kubernetes and Rancher,” said Adrian Goins, Director of Community and Evangelism, Rancher Labs. “Not only do we want all members of our community to have the most relevant and up-to-date skills on the industry’s most widely adopted Kubernetes management platform. But we also want to empower them to be at the forefront of the cloud-native way of doing business, which is agile, open source oriented and maniacally focused on fast access to innovation.”
