Remote Working Professional Course and Cert

This course will be your first step in your chosen pathway journey.

Why Not You?

I would say my favorite part of the remote worker course was the interview section. Please TAKE NOTES in this section, it is pure gold! Not only did it prepare me for my web design interview, but my interviewers actually stopped several times to say how amazing my responses were because they felt that I had researched how to answer their questions perfectly. They were so incredibly impressed and my confidence skyrocketed. This section really made me think about how I would specifically answer their questions and how I could create a lasting impression and it did just that.

What is remote work? Put simply, it refers to the ability for working professionals to do their jobs outside of traditional brick-and-mortar office settings. This can include working from home, coffee shops, libraries, and more.

Benefits of Remote Work

> Remote work allows employees an unparalleled level of independence and the ability to better manage the age-old work-life balance.

> Remote work also allows for tremendous opportunities to pursue entrepreneurship on your own.

> With remote work, more and more positions are being opened up for people with a certain set of skills—not a certain degree.

> Remote work has leveled the playing field, enabling those who previously couldn’t access educational and professional materials the opportunity to learn and work from the comfort of their own home.

> Remote work is perfect for those seeking to transition from another career—such as retail, manufacturing, military, etc.—to in-demand industries hiring remotely.
