What online classes can I take that will qualify me for good paying jobs?

I work 3-11 and want to advance in my career. what are some good courses that I can take in the meantime online while I am working?
I want to do law enforcement but the academy is hands on, I am good with computers and wouldn't mind taking technology classes. any recommendations?

Your best bet would be to do a self-paced programming course. IT is also very hands on and there's pretty much only two low-cost options that I can think of for getting hands-on experience at home. You could try learning how to fix computers or you could learn to create programs.

Although there are many college and industry certifications that you can pursue, this field tends to place a higher priority on hands-on experience. The degrees/certifications tend to be more beneficial after you already have a fair amount of experience using a given technology.
