list of free courses, that are not mentioned
#1
Ok. 

This could be redundant, bare with me.

If I was to note anything special:
- Never "sit on your hands"/procrastinate (dont miss opportunities, they might go away)
- Do not avoid GE credits, they will not go away, but they dont come back either (personal flaw of mine)

If you like tech, IT, Cyber type courses, or "Projects" in general, "LESS COMMON" area is a "super easy" boat load of credits (Google Certs are like 84 credits alone).
Most are electives or are part of concentrations/specializations,

In my collection of credits, I have found some odd ones (I'm the guy that found TEEX MGT343, user "aazard")

I had a list on a wiki discussion page, but it was messy. I'll try to keep this clean/simple:

LIST
//
//

Common:

- TEEX: 
Mainly the Cybersecurity 101/201/301, etc. ... on wiki 
But they have "MGT343" about once per year online (more often in person), good grab
TEXX offers physical/digital "Professional Certificates" also, these will "double up" more in a PLA, dont miss these:
Cybersecurity Awareness (match to CYB101) + Cybersecurity Risk Management (match to CYB201) + Technical Cybersecurity (match to CYB301)

- Modern States CLEP Prep/Voucher:
I wont say more, on wiki

//
//

Less Common

- AWIT (Advancing Women in Tech)
Offers 2 courses, 6 credits each, one course is UL
It was basically a dupe of Google PM and AWS Cloud Practitioner (respectfully)

- Coursea (ACE):
"Plus Hacking" ... ALL IBM/Google/Meta/Microsoft/Salesforce certs "can" be done free via "various avenues" (I used American Dream Academy, and the Alumni program) 
My personal fav platform!
DO NOT miss https://www.coursera.support/s/article/l...uage=en_US (gotta catch em all!)
Beware Advanced SAS and Deepseek AI... these are "not simple"

- Harvard/Harvard Online (& HBS Online/edX/GetSmarter), I did get a free verifiable certificate personally
Unless its direct edX, your mileage will very ... you 100% need a verifiable certificate for it to be possible at all
CS50x, CS50W, CS50P & CS50AI stand out (credits = 4, 3, 3 & 3 respectfully) as a great, if specialized set

- FEMA IS:
I like it ... no cost, BUT it seems to cost alot ($90?) per course, to get FCC to transcribe them. But these "are not difficult" IMHO
The Emergency Management A.A.S. really looks like a charmer (too me)


////
////

Non-credit PLA Stuff (it doesnt hurt, but DO NOT focus on this, except maybe First Aid)

- "Savealife"
First-Aid CPR/AED NHCPS (ILCOR Standards and Guidelines and are Joint Commission/JCAHO compliant) free and accredited

- Certiprof:
Offers 10 free certs (Six Sigma White Belt and SCRUM Foundations stand out, others are less known) 

- 6 Sigma Study:
Offers a free Scrum SFC, plus Six Sigma White & sometimes Yellow, Belt

- MSI:
Wildly offers a Six Sigma Green Belt, FREE

- Cisco Network Academy:
Is so good it is criminal, that its free. heavy network/cyber focus

- Oracle University:
Not as good as above, but these are "cloud" certs.
Its not AWS, its very "free"
