I'm interested in boosting my skills and resume through professional development. I have some free time during the school day, but unfortunately, there's no school budget for PD. Does anyone have recommendations for courses or workshops that offer certification and are accessible or affordable for someone paying out of pocket?

Check out the Microsoft Learn Educator Center. There are tons of free courses and badges you can earn. Some are surprisingly useful for the classroom, especially around tech tools and blended learning.

Check out your state’s DOE offerings. Sometimes they have free or low cost courses. I have taken courses through PDI in the past and found them to be affordable.

NexTech has some PDs that are awesome, and some of their stuff actually pays you. It is especially great if you are into Computer Science.

If you have a CSPD Week in your state, it is definitely something to check out. Ours pays out around a $1,000, plus motel, lunches, breakfasts, and a ton of free resources.
