by Robert Smith Technology Expert

Upskilling oneself is important as it paves the way for great career growth. IoT or Internet of Things is one of the biggest revolutions that the world is talking about. It is expected that by the end of this year, we will have around 20.4 billion IoT devices being used, with these growing numbers there is going to be demand for IoT experts and IoT developers who can help in building a strong framework of devices which will interact seamlessly.


In 2015 we saw greater use of IoT devices in the form of connected cars, home appliances, fitness wristbands, sensor-mapped cities, wearable baby monitors etc. IoT, The number of use cases, has grown over a period of time. 


We all know that IoT is in the boom, and at the same time, there is a need for IoT experts who can understand market needs and based on it, they can prepare the products. In this blog, we are going to discuss top skills that one needs to have for IoT certifications and become an IoT expert.


Top 10 IoT Training skills


  1. Circuit design- One of the first skills that you need to acquire is circuit designing. There has been a drastic increase in this. As an IoT developer, you need to master this skill. Any connected device functions on the circuit design, it needs adjustment and adaptation of chip design to work as per the new system requirement. 

  2. Data Security- If we are talking about the systems working on the digital platform, then it becomes important that the information that gets stored in these devices are safe. As an IoT expert, you are required to have these skills such that the system that you create is safe. Having security provision ensures that there is no unauthorized access, sharing altering or disturbance. Data security is important for every organization since the IoT devices are connected to the storage centres; but it becomes important that the data is secured. 

  3. Microcontroller programming- This is yet another important skill that one needs to acquire. Microcontroller programming makes data processing more intelligent. Microcontrollers are compact microcomputers which are embedded in the system. These controllers are programmed to perform certain tasks. You can find widespread use of these in robots, medical devices, vending machines, home appliances etc. As an IoT developer, you are required to have these skills.

  4. AutoCAD- Another skill that you need to adopt if you wish to become a successful IoT developer and IoT expert. It lets you design and shapes the designs of connected tools. 

  5. Machine Learning- It makes use of data sensors and other connected devices to make smarter applications and devices. IoT experts in adaptive algorithm and data analytics capabilities which can help companies in extracting data patterns from the available data. 

  6. IoT hardware- For successful functioning of connected devices, it must have a backing of string electric and communication hardware. Hence, there is a greater demand for engineers who can help in setting up Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and networking solutions. Hence the skill set dominating. This is AutoCAD designs, quality management, Microelectrochemical systems or MEMS.

  7. Big data- As an IoT expert, you are required to have knowledge and information on Big Data. Companies working on IoT need to analyze a large volume of data; of this, they need to filter the useful information and the not so useful one. If you have experience in Apache Spark and Hadoop will be an added advantage. 

  8. Networks- With IoT devices working together, they are harnessing a large volume of data. It becomes important that data transmission pathways are secured, and it requires the skills in the field of networking and electrical. It demands skills like setting up and resolving issues of modern networks, knowledge in WPA/WEP networks, use of RFID, knowledge on Bluetooth Low Energy and wireless technologies. 

  9. Embedded chips- Individuals looking forward to making a career in the field of IoT need to have knowledge of embedded chips that helps in communicating data. The chips used in IoT should be tiny, energy efficient and meticulously designed.  

  10. GPS development- There is a rise in the GPS market via wearable, logistic companies, smart vehicles. As more and more people are getting inclined towards using location-aware devices, there is going to be greater demand for professionals who can develop devices which are equipped with GPS-enabled technology. Hence, we can say that being conversant in GPS technology is going to benefit the IoT developer and IoT experts. 


Concluding Thoughts


IoT certification is a great way to upskill one's knowledge. IoT developers and IoT experts need to master the skills mentioned above. Global Tech Council is a leading name when it comes to online training. The entire curriculum of IoT certification program is designed in a way that it provides complete knowledge and information in different skills and modules of IoT. Upskilling oneself will not only give a boost to your career but will also make you eligible for better pay.
