On March 29th, Apple made available two new App Development with Swift certifications to recognize foundational knowledge of Swift, a robust and intuitive programming language that’s easy to learn, simple to use, and super powerful — which makes it a great language for first-time coders and full-time developers. The App Development with Swift Associate and App Development with Swift Certified User exams are based on free Develop in Swift curriculum from Apple to help learners in high school and higher education stand out for high-demand jobs in iOS app development.
Coding has transformed the global economy, creating entire new industries and supporting millions of jobs. The iOS app economy in the US alone now supports more than 2.1 million jobs across all 50 states, helping to provide opportunities for Americans of all ages. Certification in App Development with Swift helps students prepare for current and future app economy careers.
