I was in a similar position as you (except instead of pursuing a web development certificate I was debating dropping out entirely, after having success with a side project and various development jobs). Although I would have done just fine if I dropped school, I'm happy that I stuck with it. I feel now that I have a much deeper understanding of computing, especially after taking advanced algorithm analysis courses, AI, and more.
