To Get a Certification or Not to Get a Certification, That Is the Question #SACareer

The Student Affairs Collective

When it comes to career services, there is an alphabet soup of certifications that you can receive. So, how do you decide whether or not you need a certification, which one is right for you, and where to receive the certification from? I feel like these are all questions that were haunting me for the past couple years.
