    Nah, wouldn't bother with it.

    Get a blog together, put together some good stuff on codepen etc. Qualify that you do good work by doing good work. Not with certificates.


    At least that's my 2c :)

    Was thinking in terms of building my cv for once i'm finished with college and stuff it might help a bit but portfolio vs education its all relative.

    I asked a designer friend about this recently.
    As someone who interviews job applicants for his company, he considers them worthless.

    In this line of work the quality of your portfolio/work better reflects your ability than any certification
