Odd Courses You Can Take to Change Your Skills
Odd Courses You Can Take to Change Your SkillsSpark some joy in your life & make your resume stand-outJen “Odd” Glantz here! Here’s something I might not have told you ever before: In college, I majored in poetry. Yes, poetry. You’re probably wondering what I was thinking back then, but it doesn’t matter. I was able to get a long list of jobs that had nothing to do with my degree, start my own business (without any bizz experience), write 3 books, start a podcast, and go off and work for myself (for the past 7 years). My degree didn’t matter but what mattered were all the other things I did that helped compliment my skills and prove to employers that I was way more than what I studied when I was 18. Listen closely to this: We are way more than JUST our job experiences, degrees, and what is on our resume. So if you’re someone who wants a new career, a new side hustle, a new hobby, or a new skillset, you can make that happen. The first step might be as simple as taking a course or getting an online certification. Read on to find out what I mean by that. It’s time to learn & grow your career. Wondering how you can do that in May?🗓️ Mark your calendars for May 9-13, because World Certification Week is back! World Certification Week is HubSpot Academy's annual event where folks are encouraged to learn, connect, and grow by dedicating time to their professional development. You'll have the opportunity to learn about a variety of industry topics, connect with fellow learners and thought leaders, and earn HubSpot certifications. And if you need another reason to participate, for every certification awarded between May 9-13, HubSpot will donate $5 to education-focused charities. Odd Courses You Can Take That Can Change Up Your CareerThese are FREE!If there’s a topic you’re interested in but not sure if you want to fully invest in learning it, look for a free intro course to help you learn more and see if it is something you want to pursue to help change your career or your life. Here are some of my favorite free courses out there:
These cost $$ but are worth it!
These can give you certifications to add to your resume!Ps. Ever thought about starting your own course? Not only is a good way of creating passive income but it’s an awesome way to show off a skill you’re great at (you can even add that you have a course to your resume). Learn how to do that here.
