Hi

I am posting this for my uncle. He has been having a rough time with this business teaching computer courses. He does not have his certificates(destroyed) :( hence cannot apply for any jobs. Is there any legit online platform/ site which allow computer teachers and other subject teachers to teach online through web conference/ skype? I googled many but not quite sure about their authenticity. Any legit paying sites would be appreciated.

I'm sorry to hear that. Is your uncle still looking for a job? He could have a lot of job offers if he's open to working online. It doesn't necessarily have to be teaching computer courses. He could do tasks under the Computer skills category (excel, word processing, etc.) or under Admin Support category (Data Entry, Researcher, etc.). You could let him sign up on Staff.com, it focuses more on making the candidates have full time jobs. Just make sure to write an impressive resume along with his experience and skills. Let me know how it turns out. :)

Why'd he destroy his qualifications? No proof you can do the job = no chance of getting the job.

Probably he didn't destroy them himself.... Usually natural disaster does a pretty good job of doing that.
Possibly contact the issuing authority and get new certificates.

This is exactly right.

Anything worth having can be re-issued by calling the issuing authority. A+? Call up CompTIA. Degree? Your University Alumni Association will get you another. CCNA? Call up VUE. etc. The little card you get is to make you feel better, it's not actually useful as a way of proving you have some certification. I've never been asked to prove my degrees when I've taken a job - truthfully I don't think anybody has bothered to check even once that I actually graduated. Any company that doubts your certification wouldn't take a little card saying "you're certified in x" as proof anyway. Everyone knows you can just make that up in Microsoft Word. They'll just verify it by calling admissions or the issuing authority - every reputable certification agency will do because it's the only way to protect their (the certification companies) reputation.
