Broaden your Knowledge with online courses for free !

Does Online certification course by NPTEL, Udemy, edX or Coursera has any significance or value ?
     Yes, Certification is extremely helpful when you are applying for jobs & higher education.

Getting certified either online or offline involves going through course material, tutorials, quizzes and submitting assignments in time. Completing assignments & getting them verified to meet the pass criteria is an indication of your level of learning.


This also shows your willingness to learn new things and commitment to complete the courses though there are no academic grades here.


When it comes to the case of job interviews, certification gets you a good impression in the eyes of interviewer. If they have to choose one among two equally qualifies candidates, one with certification and other candidate without any certification, there is a high chance that the person with certification get priority.

Merely enrolling a course and reviewing the course contents is not enough. It doesn’t really indicate anything.
