CSU Global Undergraduate Certificates of Completion by CBE
#14
High_Order1 Wrote:What value is a certificate such as this to potential employers? Surely something like this isn't competitive with a degree? And, I'm betting it probably can't be used in lieu of when a job posting requires a degree.

Or, does it? "...or an equivalent combination of education and experience"

Personally speaking, I went off to University and started my almost completely useless degree in Politics when I was 18. Years later when I managed to get an entry level IT job I went back to university in the evenings to get a Computing certificate to show that a) I had the knowledge & b) I had the commitment to learn. It only took me 2 semesters and I've had many very positive remarks on it. Without it I don't know if I'd have got to the position I'm in, as a consultant, where I can pick and choose contracts.

I can see how someone wanting to get an entry level job in accountancy or wants a promotion but has a Liberal Arts degree, for example, would find a certificate very useful
