So now that I'm a WGU student, I have free access to Udemy and LinkedIn Learning. I also have free access to most of Coursera due to NY State (yay my tax dollars getting me something!!). I'm definitely looking at completing some of the certs on Coursera. Having access to Udemy and LinkedIn Learning got me to thinking. I could never sleep and just take all of these free classes. Then reality hit. Yeah I need sleep so I do need to prioritize a bit. Coursera certs are often ACE approved, but I'm well beyond my bachelor's so that's not important to me. I am wondering if the Coursera certs will carry more clout with employment in IT (specifically project management positions) than a course from Udemy (don't even know if there's certs on there) and LinkedIn Learning (I think there are some certs on there). I know we get pretty badges, but they are like a collection. There's sooooo many of these things today and it's easy to just glance over them like whatever. So I'm wondering about everyone's take on Coursera vs Udemy vs LinkedIn Learning. Coursera Plus is $1 a month through my NYS plan right now. Those Advancing Women in Tech certs look pretty snazzy for $1 a month. That product management one is calling me.
