[2024] 150+ Online Courses to Help Your Career

Boost your job prospects by taking online courses to help plan your career, develop your skills, improve your resume, ace that interview, and negotiate a job offer.

Are you looking for a job or a new career? Here are more than 150 online courses to help. While most courses are useful for everyone, some are particularly aimed towards young people, while others explain how to apply for a new job later in life.

Class Central founder and CEO Dhawal Shah wrote about an online course that helped him ace a technical interview and land a job in Silicon Valley in 2012. While many online courses teach technical skills, there are also plenty to help you write your resume and succeed at interviews, plus help you identify and develop skills important for the careers of today and tomorrow.

Soft skills are highly valued by employers in a range of occupations. You can find courses in communication, negotiation and dealing with conflict, problem solving, creative thinking and related skills. Learn effective strategies to build your network and use it to improve your chances of landing that new position or thrive in your current one.

And on a different note, applying for endless jobs can be a depressing business. Join the million of learners in The Science of Well-Being from Yale or A Life of Happiness and Fulfillment from ISB and learn how to increase your happiness and build more productive habits.

On Strategy : What Managers Can Learn from Philosophy – PART 1
École Centrale Paris via Coursera
In the expression “creative thinking”, the keyword is not creativity; the keyword is thinking. With the help of great philosophers, you will rediscover the art of thinking. To help leaders to be rigorous even without figures, great philosophers have lots of ideas. Managers are invited to rediscover the art of thinking. They should understand the role of mental models, realize the importance of cognitive bias, agree on clear definitions and efficient criteria etc. Creativity demands the ability to unshackle ourselves from conventional ways of thinking, to “think outside the box”. But we need to go a step further. Once outside the box, we need to construct a new box or boxes (that is, new intellectual frameworks or models) to help us structure our thinking. Only once we have done so can we generate truly game-changing ideas.

Successful Presentation
University of Colorado Boulder via Coursera
Few kinds of communication can have the effect of a powerful presentation. Even a short speech can motivate people to change long-held beliefs or to take action, and a wonderfully delivered speech can transform a normal person into a leader. In this course, Prof. William Kuskin provides a series of pragmatic videos and exercises for successful public speaking and presentations. The course develops through four themes—mastering fear, developing a creative formula, using verbal and body language, and anticipating the room—so that you can discover your personal power as a speaker and give excellent presentations. Successful presentations do not rely on perfect teeth, a deep voice, or an army of scriptwriters. They depend largely on the same skills as successful Business Writing and Graphic Design: clarity, structure, and revision. The goal of the course, therefore, is to enable you to discover your own internal power as a speaker and express it to the world. After this course, with some practice, you will be able to go into any situation and command the room for as long as you like.

Creativity Toolkit II: Creative Collaboration
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign via Coursera
Creativity requires us to collaborate with others. This course is designed to make you a better creative collaborator. Creativity can require us to bring together knowledge from different areas, often known by different people. We need to foster effective collaboration rather than have those differences lead to misunderstandings and conflict. The ideas that we generate, individually or collectively, will be evaluated by others, such as bosses, funders, and customers. These audiences will likely have different concerns when they hear about your ideas and are likely to evaluate ideas differently than you do. We need to pitch our ideas in ways that get others excited about them, rather than bored or confused, so that we can expand the group of collaborators in our creative efforts.

Requirements Specifications: Goals and Conflict Analysis
University of Colorado System via Coursera

Often this leads to the need of more interviews and group sessions. We’ll go through how to handle group meetings, dealing with inconsistency, and handling conflict between stakeholders.

The Columbia University Center for Veteran Transition and Integration (CVTI) supports excellence and innovation in transition programming for current and former members of the armed forces. As a service member in transition, you may face barriers reaching your potential in accessing higher education and beginning meaningful careers, despite the many effective programs offered to this population by the Department of Labor, Department of Defense’s Transition Assistance Program, and other programs offered by the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. With this in mind, the CVTI is dedicated to creating free courses that will help to break down those barriers to your successful transition.
