I apologize I've been blowing this board up lately, but I have been ultra proactive looking for a new gig, so I have run into a few questions lately.
I have a BS non IT. However I have taken IT courses, anywhere from a entry level A+ course to a database design course. Infact I have taken 3 database courses and the A+ course. How would you list them. I'll be honest I learned a lot about Databases from those classes and I feel leaving them off really hurts me. So with all that blabber being said, how would you list them on your resume?
I current have several sections in my resume. I have a quick blurb about my skill sets, like an intro. I then go into my professional experience. I then list my certifications and degree. Then I finally list the platforms/OS and applications I've touched/used.
Any ideas I am really lost on this.

In my opinion i would put it in a cover letter and not the CV but that opinion varies. I prefer to bulk up my cv with experiance ive gained in job roles.Xbox Live: Bring It On
