I would encourage AWS or Azure cloud training and certs. Even though we've been hearing "Cloud" for many years, a lot of companies are ramping up their 'digital transformations' . I've been in technology and Cyber Security for 30+ years. A keynote speaker once said if you want a successful career, get into IT, if you want a successful career for life, go into Cyber Security.

To echo Legion, I'd much rather hire attitude and aptitude than a bunch of certs. Takes a certain type of person, who likes to dork around on their own time, to be successful. Technologies can be learned....

If there is an interest in Cloud, acloudguru.com is pretty good as a training and certification source.
