What is a technical certificate/degree I can get in under 6 months? I am a 23 year old female in the Denver,CO?

area. I know Dental Assisting is only 3-6 months here but I am not interested in that type of career. Please help!! I can not find a job so I feel the only thing to do is go to school but Im not interested in going for a long time for reasons that would take too long to write on here so please do not suggest longer schooling for anything.

THANKYOU!!!

1. Massage therapy, make sure you take a classes that really focuses on our own body and how to care for it when we give a massage (i am a Massage therapist of about 20 years)
2.Barber School, actually "barbers" that can legally rotate a red and white in front of their store are dwindling away to Men's salons and integrated into larger franchises Like Super Cuts but a simple Barber still attends to attract a good crowd if he is good. I don't think that there is an overload of Barbers either and it is kind of nostalgic. It is especially rare to find one who will actually "shave" a man and many of the older Gentleman still rely on, or desire this ( as well as young men who want to get a thrifty haircut without having to go to the Mall. It can end up a place for the men to meet and talk.
3.Dog grooming.
4.Certified nursing assistant if you cram.
6.Niall care. Manicure Pedicure in the salons.
That's all that I can think of right now.
It should at least point you to some carear Types that you may seek.
Good luck!

Is a Technical Writing Certificate worth the money if I already have a B.A. in English?

I've been researching six month certificate programs, but it doesn't seem like they cover much material. Do these certificates really give you a leg up in the job hunt?

A certificate (or degree) in tech writing might get your resume looked at over one without - it won't be the deal maker though. The better programs give you hands-on writing challenges with qualified critique to help develop your skill. The deal maker though is whether you can write or not.

Most HR people have come to learn that a BA in English is really a degree in literature and not in writing. While we expect that an English grad will write better than will a sociology grad, we don't accept it as an automatic qualification for a writer any longer. Writing samples (preferably 'real world') are what sets the writing applicant apart from the pack. If you want a job as a writer then you need to be able to show some real-world work samples.

Technical writing is specialized according to what you write about. We tend to expect a tech writer to have serious coursework/experience in the specialty area as well as in writing. This is the single biggest hurdle for prospective tech writers - it's great that you write well but if we want you to explain the natural environment of Cyclemys dentata and expect you'll be able to do it in terms even an HR guy can understand then you'd need some science background for that one. [this is the number one reason prospective writers can't find work - they only really know writing and we don't usually need anyone to 'write about writing'.]

A lot of tech writing is being contracted out these days. "Jobs" are really hard to come by except in IT (writing manuals) and in Engineering. Many tech writers are making their living as contract writers and have to go hunting for clients like anyone else that owns a business.

Those things in mind, the certificate helps in that it should make you a better tech writer and provide you with some samples to share. If you're doing contract work then it helps as an extra credential that might give you an edge over the next guy bidding the same job.

The real decision though is almost always based on your writing samples. You either have the skill and talent or you don't. If you do then you'll work - if not, no degree or credential is going to get you (or keep you) employed.
