The pay range is double - triple my current pay. Application deadline is June 11th. Are there any Office/computer/leadership type certificates out there (free/cheap) that would be nice little resume enhancers? I’ve got the DEI certificate and another in Organizational Leadership that I have put in a side section on additional training and certificates
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.
