I'm wondering about this too.. I have X-ray and CPR certification. Would it go under Academic Enrichment Programs since I took courses for them? Anybody?
 
Was it for a job? volunteering? just because?


Just talk about it in the description of whatever you used it for. Don't use them as fillers.

I got CPR and X-ray certification to be more useful when volunteering at a dental office. Anyone knows which category it should go under?
