You should say a little more about what her goal is. Is it to:
get a job?
"In" tech?
As a lawyer?
As a patent lawyer?
HR lawyer?
Does she want a job as a programmer?
There are lots of certifications (as you well know), so people need to know more about the goal.
- CapitalistCartr 9y agoGood point. She'll be a lawyer, but working in tech related to non-patent IP. Definitely not HR. Her mouth and overall "direct style" preclude that. No programming directly, but working with the subject to protect IP.
- inputcoffee 9y agoIf by non-patent IP you mean: NDAs, Non-compete's, and Trademarks, then it would depend on the particular niche. Really, if she is working as a lawyer, I don't think a particular certification will give her more credibility. Given what you said, a design certificate might give her a leg up in Trademark law. If she is going to work with code itself, I would definitely learn as much git as I can. She can diff a few files, and get a feel for how much people borrow and fork when it comes to code. Those are the ideas I have but she probably knows more about it than I do, from your description.
