Are the FreeCodeCamp courses really 300 hours a piece? That would be about 40 hours a week for 8 weeks. That is closer to an actual bootcamp workload. Has anyone actually completed their certifications and can speak to their time to complete?

Yes their material is very thorough with hands-on labs as well! I would highly recommend it.

The IBM badges are great. I've gotten few debating if I should link them to my Linkedin or not.

If you're looking for to land a job that's relevant to the badges you've earned, then add them. Otherwise it's not really necessary.

Awesome find! Thanks Garima! I'll be sure to add them and notify once it's live. If you find more you can add them directly here by forking the Github project to your profile then add them and request a `Pull request that would be incredibly helpful for the whole community.

Awesome list, thanks for sharing!

In case you're interested, I've put up a bunch of programming resources on devresourc.es, and maybe it'd be nice to add a "Certificates" section there too.

Feel free to check it out. :)

Technologies are increasingly integrated into the work of the health care structure. This makes medicine progressive and effective treatment. But this poses a threat of cyberattacks to the hospital's servers.

For example, if information about the health of many patients gets on the Internet, this can attract not only drug sellers, but also dangerous people:
Black market sellers;
Fraudsters;
Blackmailers who will try to redeem and disclose data on the health of a person (if we are talking about an influential person).

And many other dangerous people who can harm patients and the clinic. In order for the healthcare sector not to be afraid to introduce modern technologies into its work, it needs to ensure cybersecurity.

I really appreciate the effort behind this list. When I was starting out, finding trustworthy courses with genuinely free certificates was surprisingly difficult. Having everything organized by subject, level, and time makes learning feel much less overwhelming. I have already bookmarked several options, especially in cybersecurity, Python, and digital marketing. Thank you for sharing this. ND-Center .com

Thanks!! Edx is an awesome platform for MOOCs, it's free to take the courses but usually to get the certificate you need to pay.

Thank you for putting this together. I think I might get tempted to do a certification this year. After leaving uni I never did any certs, just a few on EdX for fun.
