What's better to join the industry ? Does exist unity certification cheaper for students ?

Hi everyone,
I’m a 17 years old Italian student and my dream is to become a videogames developer, in particular programmer. I would like to know which is the best way to join the industry, because i was wondering about taking a degree of five years in italy in ICT and then trying to join a game studio, but now i started following some courses on unity and i discovered there are some certification which altough last only 2 years, so what’s the best thing to join the game industry ? Another question is: how are unity certification and unity premium learn linked ? Are unity learn tutorial linked to the certification ? And does exist a way to get a certification in a cheaper way for students ?
Thank you for your answers

Hi MauroCarlu672, Unity certifications are a good way for anyone to showcase their Unity skills. Unity Learn has content that can be helpful to prepare for certification but most of the courseware aligned for the certification exams can be found here - https://unityedustore.pearsonvue.com/.

Having said that, please have a look at Create with Code - Unity Learn which is aligned with Unity Certified User: Programmer Certification. Because of COVID-19, Unity is doing a live virtual training for this course until May 08th. More information is available here - Create with Code Live - Unity Learn COVID-19 Support

Also because of COVID-19, Unity has deep discounts at this time on almost all the different types of certification products to support the global community with learning. Please find the relevant information here - https://unityedustore.pearsonvue.com/ .
