Cash pay premiums for some IT certifications rose as much as 57% in Q3 in the US, highlighting for employees the importance of keeping up to date on training, and for CIOs the cost of running the latest (or oldest) technologies. On average, though, bonuses for non-certified skills were bigger and faster-growing than those for certifications.

GoHenry (which raised $121.2M), which bills itself as “smart banking for kids” has attempted to crack part of this market, but is aimed at kids not families, per say.
