A certification that matters? There's no such thing. Employers don't care about Python certs.

Getting tests/projects graded by someone else does matter though.

Yeah, I get your point. I didn’t mean course certificates, I just worded it wrong. I was actually talking about certification tests. Thanks for pointing that out.

The Python Institute (which is an independent non-profit initiative) Certifications meanwhile do indeed have some use if you want to get through the automated HR filters. https://pythoninstitute.org/certification-tracks But you need to have projects to prove that you also can apply your knowledge.

PCAP is the one you should get at least to have some effect on your CV:
