Are eCornell Certificate free? If they are, then it is amazing that Cornell University offers something for FREE.
Hell no! They cost quite a bit but you get the brand name so that's worth something. The value just went up too, as an undergraduate Cornell course or two doesn't hurt the resume. This is great news!!!
