What are your thoughts on some of the outrageously priced certificate and working professional programs from the likes of Harvard, Cornell, Princeton, Stanford, Penn(discontinued)? I have been looking into certificate programs in a few different disciplines, and thought "resume boost". Is the $8000 per class x 4 or 5 or in Harvard's case $30000 per worth it? What impact might it have in getting a hand up in a competitive job market?

Tyra Banks did one of those and made it seem like she had a Harvard diploma....LOL.
Well I've done some research and I think that with me heading down the career path that I am, a graduate certificate from Villanova made be a boost and give me a little more earning potential. Yeah, I saw that article on Tyra banks....weird. I think that it should enhance your professional credentials but you should say that you're a Harvard grad. Simply state....I have a certificate in "Whatever" from Harvard's Extension Program/
