Tomorrow is the first day of Spring and Spring is a great time to cast off the old and start fresh. Ladies, what new habit or skill would you like to take on or learn to help propel your career? I am thinking of going back to school to get my MBA so I have set up some interviews with a few Universities Admin's offices next month so I can make an informed decision. #whm

I just pulled the trigger and bought the lifetime subscription to Babbel. I'm finally going to pursue my goal of learning to speak another language fluently.

Going back to school is a huge and exciting step! I’ve been thinking of pursuing some certifications, but not really sure where or what to look at. Anybody else done something like that? Would mostly be for me and I’m not looking at anything specific right now. Just something to keep my brain engaged honestly.

look into something like Coursera to test the waters! When I signed up they were offering the first 3 months free (not sure if this is still going on though) and they have access to a ton of certifications that are all self-paced. I've had it for a year now and am finishing a data analytics course, did a free philosophy course (just for fun!) and am looking into doing a Salesforce certification after I'm done this one.

Awesome idea!! I wanted to do my EMBA since 3 years now but waiting to get that raise in salary and rank so that I can afford an MBA while simultaneously working. Meanwhile I am planning to get some AI and ML certifications from Microsoft to get my dream job which would be my first priority this year..

Renovating house and find a side hustle!

Aiming to finish a certification exam I have been studying for for a while. 😊

Customer Success Managers!: I’m a well-educated service industry professional (BA and MA) trying to transition to CS. I’m having a hard time gaining traction and want to know if you have advice for landing entry level CS jobs. (Not resume advice, I’ve done my research.) I want to know more about getting my foot in the door and getting the necessary experience. Seems like most places want years of experience in the role and it’s hard to find places that will take someone hopping across industries

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
