Do you add Sololearn courses to your resume/curriculum?

Question

Hi! I was wondering if web developers do add Sololearn courses to their resume/curriculum when they finish them and have the Sololearn certificate. Should I add the courses I completed to my curriculum?

Also, if yes, do you also add courses you've completed but that don't have certificate? For example, I did the full HTML course of w3school but they don't give you a certificate unless you pay for it and I can't pay that much right now but I did the course. Should I add it?

Answer 1

Certificates are worth about what you paid for them. I doubt that many employers would be impressed with the level of training that you receive on Sololearn. The tutorials teach just enough to start your journey toward employable skills.

I would recommend that if you have started a course toward certification from a more rigorous course of study but haven't gotten the certificate, then state on your CV that you are working toward certification in <whatever>. That will certainly be noticed and considered. If hired, the employer might even pay the cost to finalize the certification.

Answer 2

SoloLearn is a great platform. Maybe SoloLearn in your curriculum won't be so useful compared to Official Certifications. But you can add SoloLearn in your LinkedIn and your GitHub profile.
