I’m lookijg into some courses, I know I can get most of them for free but I was thinking about certification too, is it worthy? Does someone cares about coursers certifications from coursers?
It’s a thing because my income is not in dolar so it gets more expensive to me
Once you get your first job, the certs of all kinds just become resume fluff, but since you are pursuing your first job, they might be useful.
As an interviewer, I think that certs are only useful if you take the test with a different company than you studied with. So I don’t think I’d care if you have a coursera cert, because I’d assume it just meant you finished the course that you paid for.
What certs are you thinking about doing, and more importantly, what are you looking to get out of them? I know “a job”, but what kind of job are you looking for?
It’s worth noting that some coursera courses are created and maintained by actually accredited institutions, and some courses qualify as college credit with ACE accreditation. Also, many tech certifications host their courses on coursera too, like microsoft has official azure cert courses on there.
That doesn’t necessarily mean anything for any given random cert, though, because that means that the entire site is a pretty big grab bag in terms of the usefulness of their certs.
