I am an undergraduate (senior) majoring in business management at a small liberal arts school. I recently came across the eCornell certification program and I was wondering if anyone had advice about taking the Business Strategy certification program as an undergraduate. I intend to attend graduate school and earn my MBA, most likely within the next 5 years, but until then, would it be helpful at all to have the eCornell certification on my resume, especially if completed before I graduate? Is this a waste of energy and money? Or will having specific certification in an area of business that I would like to begin focusing in be beneficial in the interim between undergrad and grad school? Thank you so much for your help!
Might be a differentiator over other recent graduates when applying for jobs, that said experience would be better. Also, not sure how beneficial it would be to someone with little or no professional experience to draw from when doing the course requirements.
