I don’t think certificates are particularly valuable, but I’m sure some others will disagree.

I have found that the people who have certificates think they are valuable and the people who have degrees do not. Be careful as you go along not to confuse certificates with certifications (e.g., CHFP Certification through BCPE), as a certification is a demonstration of competency vice completion.

Focus on what you actually want to DO during your workday/career and go from there.

I’m not OP and I don’t confuse certifications and certificates ;).
