Certificates are great résumé builders, provide increased marketability, verify competence to potential employers, and provide practical learning that can be translated directly into workplace application. Certificate programs also provide the knowledge you need in order to transform your career in less time than many traditional postgraduate and professional degree programs, and do not require any prerequisite work.
