Jessica’s Answer

There are different certifications you could look into, but if you are wanting something to cover many different things, I would go for a Microsoft Office Specialist Certification (MOS). This focuses on all of the Microsoft programs (Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint). This could definitely get you started with your career. You can always go for a Business Administration degree as well. Either one will help to get your foot in the door where and you can expand from there. Each office is going to have specific programs they will want you to be certified in (People Soft or QuickBooks for example) but you can find that out as you go.

Jessica recommends the following next steps:

I would look at the positions you are interested in applying for and see what certification/education you will need.

One of the other certificates you could consider is the project management certification. Most businesses require projects to be executed. You can look into www.pmi.org for ideas on how to go about it. It is a really good resource and is one of the most recognized certification in the field for project management.
