These aren't proper credentials but there are a lot of programming courses, so if you are self-taught and want some sort of certificate behind it this may or not be handy.
I'm doing one just for interest sake, and I wish I knew about this before I started university to get some basic knowledge/experience on the course prior to enrolling and on how to study/write/research at university standards.
Enjoy, GL

I heard of this not to long ago and you can even do some Bachelors by piece a few units together. would have been nice to know before i started to pay for uni my pocket is still hurting
oh wow. I paid 30k for a year long 40hours a week programming course. No degree just a cert.. I highly recommend anyone who just wants the knowledge over the piece of paper to check that out. Save yourself however many years of your life and $$$.
