    At 42, restarting your education is a great way to enhance your skills and career prospects. For one-year courses, you could consider:

    1. Digital Marketing: Learn about SEO, social media marketing, and content creation.
    2. Data Science/Analytics: Get into the growing field of data handling and analytics.
    3. Project Management (PMP): Ideal if you're aiming for a leadership role.
    4. Web Development: Learn front-end or full-stack development.
    5. Graphic Design: If you're creatively inclined, this can offer many freelance opportunities.

    These courses are highly valued in today's job market, and at your age, they can help you pivot into new industries or roles.
