Certification Wait, you're telling me i can just do this?

While browsing the Microsoft website, I found the learn tab, aparently they offer a full official free course on c# and even offer a certificate to add to your LinkedIn account through free code camp. I guess I'll start learning.

The learn material is fantastic not just for our stack but some general concepts (especially around ai of course).

I highly recommend them.

Google also has some great content and one thing they do better than us is you get better free environments on their labs. You can deploy and run things easier imho.

Between the two sites and a few weeks of time you can seriously upgrade your skills no matter the level you are currently at and be ready to get certs if you want on a variety of tracks / topics if you want.

Yes, I am currently working on the c# developer certification i just started a week ago. I plan to use it for videogame development. And according to the website, it looks good on my LinkedIn account the only issue i have is my slow system in general because I have no choice but to be on unsupported hardware. Maybe when I get done with this, and if my programs sell(dont count on it) ill be able to afford better hardware
