VCTP from Syracuse IVMF will let you certify for a cert free. It's simply Skillport with a cert voucher. Talk with S-6 about a free cert voucher.

I can say this in general about Bragg - JCU and that training complex behind the gas station on TSC side are instant gold mines for info. There's always landwarnet.army.mil, Skillport, JKO, and college.
Here's a slew of people who can help us get you more valuable info -

My major experience in the army is working with equipment such as 1523e radios, stts, ups, and up as. So I'm leaning towards electronic equipment, as it is something I'm more familiar with and though new, actually enjoy doing.

If you are interested in building and working with electronics, there is a great website community called Element14. They have a section devoted to learning about electronics to include designing, repair, building, and more. I hope this helps . https://www.element14.com/community/welcome

There’s a wide variety of ways you can go.
I would shoot for WHCA. There are a few chiefs over there at Bragg who can help you.

I would first do what you need to in order to get your training converted to college credits if you haven't already. That way, if you decide you want to be high-speed and go either an engineering route, Computer Science, or whatnot you'll be ahead of the curb. If you don't feel like college but want to play with hardware, I'd pick up an A+ certification book and self study. Then proceed to take the A+ test. Eventually, network+ will be a valuable cert to grab as well but I would wait until you get A+ If software is more your speed, learn some database programming and networking if you haven't already and take some certification tests (I'll be honest, I went hardware and I forget what certs are most valuable software side) Going for both doesn't hurt either as it will make you more versatile in the job market. Hope this helps.

I would like to take some computer science courses in college, what kind of job would these certs get me?

The A+ and Network+ certs would be good for an IT job. They will show you understand network troubleshooting and setup, as well as that you know how to diagnose issues on computers, tablets, ect. On the flip side, if you choose to learn programming languages, and demonstrate proficiency in them, you can get a job as a code monkey.
edit: If you meant Computer Science, there are alot of possibilities that open up by getting the degree, both in the science and medical fields (some say accounting too but IDK about that). I'd encourage you to dig into it yourself as it would take me a few hours just to do it justice. One example would be that Computer Scientists designed a system that can tell normal cells from cancer cells.
