Hi there! are there any recommended part time courses/certs that one with no experience or learning can take? i have a business diploma and am currently working full time but was thinking to pick up cyber security! am currently trying it out using TryHackMe, HackTheBox, etc. Have heard of certifications such as CISSP, CREST, CRTE as well! Any recommendations on which certificates would be most helpful if one were to consider starting a career in the long run? Thanks in advance :)

Depends on your interest.

I would suggest picking up at least one of these areas so you won't look stupid - system (Windows/Linux/Mac) administration, network (general networking, firewall, VPN, etc) administration, web administration, database administration

And in the area of cloud, at least the fundamentals.

A lot of security issues and recommendations all have their impact and knowing where to look and understanding their implications help. Theory and reality do not complement well (e.g. 2FA for everything, when a lot of things don't support 2FA).
