you know of any good ways to try and go for an IT certification? and do you recommend any like books and stuff for me to study up for one? thanks in advanced king

if you want to get into programming rather than regular IT, the easiest thing to do is go to a coding bootcamp for a prime language like javascript or python and then leverage that into an entry level position at a big company (especially retail companies like IKEA or something). most will hire out of bootcamps and not require college degrees. Unfortunately similar to College these do have a cost though so it's not really free if you're looking for a cheaper option. However if you're okay with that upfront cost Alchemy Code Lab & Codeworks are good ones w/ online classes from what I hear and offer JS which is high in demand. There's always hiring events at the end of each session (I know Codeworks specifically does this quite good) so you're almost guaranteed to get hired at an entry level position.
For regular IT, you probably want to look into CISSP, CCNA, A+, Security+, or Network+ certifications. Those tend to be the only ones worthwhile in my experience, the others don't have much behind them. The only other one may be worth it is AWS Solutions Certification but that's tied to Amazon, so you're basically forever tied to that company. Certifications aren't exclusive so you can get as many as you need.The information for these certifications is so uniform you can pick up virtually any course (online or otherwise) which names these certificationsa nd is up to date (i.e. A+ 2020 or A+ 2021, etc) and it'll have the correct info on it. It's not like studying for history where you need to memorize everything and then hope part of what you studied is on there. From there it's easiest to first get involved in a support specialist or project management position, or alternatively apply to work as IT at a public entity, like a public school or local government office. Once you have at least one of those on your resume it's pretty easy to then find better positions through using that as experience

Thanks bro, this helps a lot! I’m going to college for computer science rn, would it just be an easier route for me to do a boot camp and go for certs if I just feel like college isn’t for me 🤔? much love man

If you're in CompSci you basically will get a programming or data science job, you won't generally work in IT as it's actually a downgrade from a CompSci degree. CompSci degrees are heavily depend on experience/portfolio though, its very hard to get a job with only a degree unless you can get one through a hiring fair at your college. If you want to go down a different route, it really depends what you want to do long term. IT only requires CERTs and very little experience or schooling, but definitely has a cap on pay and career possibilities. You can get a stable job, but it'll be a dead end most of the time, you'll basically stay in that sector of IT forever except maybe graduating to a manager or server administrator. Server administrator can be a good job though, but is a bit harder to get, having CERT+Degree would be a better way of going for that. In terms of bootcamps, that's not really for IT but more if you're okay with working in programming. It's a bigger field with a lot more opportunities but you also need to work a lot harder; bootcamps are A LOT of work even though they have a high pay-off with a near-guaranteed job. IT Certs are far less work but are balanced by not being as high in demand unless you're okay (and confident) in more local positions

What’s the pay like for a typical IT job? At this point I’d be fine with just having a decent and stable career. I’m open to the idea of programming, but I don’t have too much experience with it as of right now. What do you think a good way to prepare for a boot camp would be ?

it can range a lot. Entry level position can be like $33k-65k depending on location and obligations. Entry level for programming is generally like 2x that by comparison. Boot Camps generally assume you basically know nothing so you don't need to prepare too much,but I'd probably have some very basics of the concepts behind them down. Especially if it's like programming, at least understand some very basic programming paradigms so they aren't just speaking a foreign language to you. For IT you need less of a background but you should know more technical terms especially hardware-wise
