From spearheading the World Data Science Initiative (WDSI) to nurturing future talent through Data Science in Schools (DaSS), DASCA is leading new efforts to transform how data science is taught and practiced. Our initiatives drive global access, cutting-edge curriculum development, and opportunities for the next wave of data innovators.
DASCA’s initiatives aim to transform how data science is taught and learned worldwide. Through these programs, DASCA seeks to:
As the first to offer accreditation for data science programs, DASCA continues to lead the World Data Science Initiative (WDSI), which now spans 60+ countries and provides hundreds of institutions with accreditation for Data Science and AI undergrad and Master’s programs. This initiative aims to accredit more than 300 institutions and build a global pool of 250,000 certified professionals by 2027.
Contact us to discover how WDSI assistance can help elevate your institution’s academic quality delivery standards by upgrading the curricula with the latest in data science. By applying for DASCA accreditation under WDSI, your institution has the option also to get accredited by the Artificial Intelligence Board of America (ARTiBA) for the degree-granting AI programs at different levels under the recently commissioned DASCA-ARTIBA joint program.
Through the World Data Science Initiative (WDSI), DASCA accredits Bachelor’s and Master’s programs in data science and related areas, offering a fast-tracked process for institutions recommended under the initiative. Additionally, DASCA subsidizes student certifications through a structured, formalized mechanism, ensuring that both institutions and students benefit from high-quality, affordable data science education.
With subsidies reducing DASCA accreditation costs by up to 60%, institutions in developing nations can now compete with global peers. This equips universities to deliver cutting-edge, industry-relevant data science education, fostering promising careers and boosting global competitiveness.
By subsidizing accreditation and student certification, the initiative ensures that universities adopt international best practices and curricula, enhancing their capacity to develop a skilled workforce in data science and AI technologies.
Achieving global accreditation for data science, AI and related programs ensures that universities maintain consistently high academic standards. For select institutions identified by the initiative DASCA simplifies the accreditation process, making it faster and more cost-effective. As technology evolves rapidly, universities face challenges in aligning new courses with industry demands. The initiative bridges this gap by helping institutions equip students with the skills needed to excel in emerging tools, platforms, and technologies that employers expect.
The initiative helps tech schools stay in sync with industry demands by aligning curricula and systems with the universally accepted standards and knowledge frameworks. This ensures accredited institutions stay up-to-date with evolving tech domains. Accreditation empowers universities with robust mechanisms, curricula, certifications, and teaching approaches that are continually benchmarked against the best in the world, enabling seamless adaptation to new industry expectations.
