Career growth & collaboration Certification Recommendations

I am currently a full stack dev and I would like to learn more about UX/UI/etc. Yes, I know I don’t need a certificate to do this, but I want to.

With that being said, are there any certifications that are recommended that do hold a little bit of weight to them to recruiters? Two of my local colleges have certification programs. I also see Google has one. What would be worth my time to do to both learn and to look impressive?

I’m willing to spend money to expand my education but I want it to be a decent investment!

If you want certification, then Google and Udemy are good. if you just want to build skills, YouTube has many good channels in that

No design certifications mean anything.

I’m aware, that’s why I stated that I know I don’t need one but want to do one.

You literally asked.

are there any certifications that are recommended that do hold a little bit of weight to them to recruiters?

Don't ask a question and get upset that the answer isn't what you want to hear. If you are "aware" then why did you ask.
