ROI Student of the Month

I’m a single mom to an amazing 17-year old son. I’m taking the Certified Remote Work Professional course to prepare for my upcoming change in life status as an empty nester. I want to be able to provide for myself but also do some traveling and not be tied down. During Covid, the company I work for went remote, for about 4 years. Recently, they have required us to come back into the office which no longer supports my lifestyle. I’m taking this course to help boost my resume as I search for my next remote work opportunity. I’ve learned a lot of great tools and terminology so far in this course and look forward to learning even more before it’s complete.
