I am working in IT and some of my colleagues are talking about getting certifications for a particular domain within our field of work. These certifications are expensive and requires time and effort. So are they worth getting?

For real, if you haven’t already try to find every bit of employer-paid training that’s available, it’s worth looking into. My workplace has a corp Microsoft learning account that will pay for one certification test a year, and other deals with online training platforms for free classes that don’t result in “certificates” exactly, but do provided verifiable proof of completion you can post to your LinkedIn or socials. (The real benefit is the knowledge you gain of course, but it’s nice to have some acknowledgment of what you’ve learned.)
