IMHO it is a very mixed bag, based on your goals. If your goal is to broaden your knowledge, then no. If your goal is to get a job where the person hiring you is not as qualified as you, then definitely. Most common in contract work. Cert

Wow that is fantastic. I did not know it existed. Only question I would have, is how much is spent on overhead. I know I am being a bit paranoid, but I have donated to too many charities that were just a money making scheme.
