What are Software engineer or computer programming] [which is a better Job to join and what are the differences?]

Hi Salma,
They are actually one and the same...like battery to a torchlight.. Computer programming is what makes a software engineer, a software engineer .In computer programming, you learn what we call software codes that are in turn used to engineer softwares/ programs , develop websites, create stunning templates and all, But it all also depends on the computer languages the engineer learns.

There is Python, Java, JavaScript, React, Ruby, HTML & CSS, Kotlin, C# and many more.. All with unique uses in the field.
Both are great to do if you're determined and you love working with software codes .. Unless you don't love it.


Are there any other professions in software development or what would be the fastest way to get a certification and not years at a school??


For the profesions in Software Development, there are quite a number ...but it all depends on you, the individual and your area of specialization okay..

Even in breaking the Software Engineering down...
There are about 7... FrontEnd Developer( he /she designs what the user sees with code after UI/UX), Backend Developer (He/ She designs the processes behind what the user sees with code after UI/UX or Frontend), Web Technologies Developer, Mobile App Developer, Full Stack Developer(someone who does both Frontend and Backend), Technical Consultant, Project Manager.

On the side but within Software Dev,
Scrum Master, UI/UX designer, Business Process Automation, Cloud Architecture, Cloud, Course Instructor..and a few others you could research on.

You can earn fundamental certificates online...
Most services have a fee for their courses but it's always worth it.. Most, in about two weeks you can be certified if you're also a very quick learner. But most times try and give your learning time..don't end after completion..revise and keep updating yourself..

Try these sites
Microsoft Learn , Alison, Google LLC, AQskill, Udemy

Nhyira recommends the following next steps:

Try a research on AtlassianJira, Coursera , LinkedInLearning as well
