Epic Games Game Design Professional Cert(Coursera)

Hello all, this is my first post in the unreal forums. I just saw the new professional certificate course that unreal/epic launched recently. I was wondering what are some general thoughts on things like this? I am head over heels addicted to learning game dev stuff but I am still very much so a noob.

The creators of the course are all esteemed individuals and the course claims that after finishing it, you will be ready to apply for jobs within the industry. I find that part hard to be true, but the professional cert and experience from the course can’t be a bad thing right? I really want to get more involved with things and learn as fast as I possibly can.

I figure at the very least, I learn some stuff and have the cert to add to my linkedin! Anyways, let me know your thoughts on cert programs and courses like this! If possible, I would love to hear from some industry professionals as well.
