Taking a few marketing courses isn't going to make you a top candidate for a marketing job, if they want a degree - a cert just isn't going to cut it. I don't think I've ever seen a company specifically ask for a marketing cert.
For some occupations, a cert is more than enough - they just want to know that you took all of the qualifications for the job. Many jobs in the medical field only require a cert for instance. But it's a terminal degree - meaning there isn't an AA or BA to get after that. For example, a Phlebotomist. You don't need an BA or even an AA to get a job. You just need to take the classes and pass an exam, and you get a certificate that you can then get a job with.
Do you mean a certificate or certification? You can earn a certificate in pharmacy tech at a college, and you can earn a certification in pharmacy tech from various organizations (PTCB is the only one that matters). The certification is what you really need to get a job and comply with state laws.
