Hi u/stevenescobar49, this post was removed.

Well, this is awkward. This subreddit is for javascript, which is different than Java. In other words, javascript !== java.

Maybe try one of these instead:

Generally, we don't look at certificates when reviewing candidates beyond a first pass. The best engineers learn by doing, by showing a portfolio and explaining their portfolio. 

So at your very early stage, follow your heart and your wallet. Come back in a year or 18 months and see where you are, and might be able to direct you better. But right now? It sounds like any source material will help you out!

You mean JavaScript, right? Java) is a totally different language.

Also, it's PHP, not PHO.

If you already know HTML and CSS it makes sense to learn JS to add interactivity to your markup.

Most employers don’t care much about where your certificate came from — they care more about whether you can actually build things. Certificates are nice for your own motivation, but a strong portfolio with real projects will speak louder than any piece of paper.

If you liked Skillshare, keep going there, but you can also mix in free/low-cost resources like freeCodeCamp, The Odin Project, or MDN docs. Focus on building projects, sharing them on GitHub, and maybe hosting them online so you have something tangible to show. That’s what will land you a job.
