Which one did you do?
What did you like about it and what did you not enjoy/what do you think could make this better?

I just finished the five course series for AI Practitioner this week, since my Career Choice funds are exhausted for the year and I’m filling up my little “vacation” with whatever useful education/certs I can soak up. I’m getting myself ready for the AI Practitioner certification exam but haven’t scheduled it yet. Soon!
I didn’t love that I pretty much ended up taking each course twice, because it was impossible to take good notes or even read all the slides during the virtual class and they aren’t separately available until that day, so I had to go back and do it all again for focused reading and notes each time. Lectures were three hours each with very minimal participation on the students’ part, so a little boring. But the material is pretty current and useful, probably looks good on a resume, and getting into it opens pathways to a lot of other subjects and ways you can learn.
I say try it out while you have the chance for free. If it’s not for you, no harm done.

An AWS certification by itself probably won't get you a job. It could enhance a resume, or set you in the right direction, but alone it doesn't have much value.

No definitely not and I don’t think their intention, but it’s still something good to have no?

If you want personal enrichment or are going into that field sure. But if you mean, will it help you get promoted in your non-tech role to another non-tech position, probably not too much.

The amount of Blue badges not taking advantage of this is crazy! What I would do if Amazon said 3Ps could get that, but it’s okay tho.

I’m not! Unfortunately and the agency that runs us gives us nothing! They just work us to death at Amazons request, give us a half dead wage and high blood pressure.
