"The College Network and Boston University Corporate Education Center helped me earn my PMP credentials. After I passed, I wanted credentials in other areas that could help me in my work so I pursued certificates from eCornell. I try to encourage others to pursue higher education. I was hired into my company as a welder and continued to grow. A position opened as a Project Planner. I took it, earned my Project Management credentials, and moved into my former boss's job. Without these courses, I would not have my current job."

“I’ve always wanted an Ivy League degree. Even though I still don’t have one, I do have the next best thing — an Ivy League certificate. With the Cornell University name on my résumé, I think it’s helped separate me from the crowd. After working for one company for 18 years, I decided to check out other opportunities; that was about two years ago. In these last two years, I’ve applied for about four positions and have had three offers while most of my friends aren’t even getting responses to their résumés. So is it the Ivy League Certificate? I’m not sure, but I do know it has been brought up at every interview. Nice, eh?”
