Was your Organizational Leadership one quick and/or cheap?

I would probably put "enrolled" for the Google PMP certificate on my resume.

It is a Coursera specialization.  It has, I think, 5-6 courses.  I have some done.  Each course has a certificate as well.  I think it is pretty easy.  Watch some videos, answer some questions, do mini projects and essays.

MS-900 (Microsoft 365 Fundamentals) - basically, Microsoft Office - is $99 ($15 if your job has been impacted by covid): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/c...ams/ms-900

Dynamics 365 may be another (relatively) easy certification to earn. $99 (no $15 option): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/c...damentals/

Perhaps a first-aid certificate (shows you know what to do in an emergency)? https://www.redcross.org/take-a-class/on...ix%2C%20az There's even a "safe work practices during covid" certificate.

If you had a little more time, you could complete the Google Project Management Professional certificate: https://www.coursera.org/professional-ce...management (you could always put "in progress" on your resume). It says 6 months but, based on other Coursera courses, I'm guessing that you can probably get it done in a month or two ($39/mo).

I was thinking of doing that Google one.  The 365 ones could be useful too.  Thanks.
