Through TADA, you can also get both the IT Automation with Python certificate and the IT Support Professional certificate from Google. Unfortunately, the IT Automation certificate will NOT be worth credits at TESU. However, it should be a good free intro into Python scripting. The IT Support Professional certificate is worth some credits at TESU. It is a good intro to a lot of concepts that you'll need if you decide to pursue a Computer Science degree. The networking portion can also be applicable to cybersecurity.
Not free, but Sophia.org also has some intro programming/intro database courses. The courses are a bit time-consuming, especially for beginners. But $100-$200 and 1-2 months of your time would be a relatively low-cost way to find out whether you hate or love these things.
There is also TEEX. Very basic surface-level stuff, but free. Are they actually worth credit? Can you get credit? Will TESU even award credit? Biiiiig question marks there. They've been a bit dubious, credit-wise, for a few years now. But they're free. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Fr..._of_Credit
