<p>I had to put my education on hold, and I’m not sure when I’ll be able to resume it… Long story short, I want to gain some skills in the interim that could help me find temporary employment and then, once I’ll be back to the grind, provide me with a modest income in the way of part-time work/freelancing. The things I’m interested in are programming, translations, and digital photography. Should I start by continuing to dabble in all three and see which one works out best, or choose one and focus on it from the start? Are there any certificates I can earn? Courses I can take? I live in NY… I hope this is the best place to post this. I didn’t want to litter the forums with three different threads…</p>
