This answer is not specific to your Question.

Always certificates add value to your resume/CV. You will get a chance to get an Interview call. That's all. Now the same certificate will work against you in your Interview. Let us assume you answer 6 questions out of 10 questions in the Interview.

If you do not have Certificate then the Interviewer will be happy that you know the answer for 6/10 questions without undergoing any course.

If you have Certificate then the Interviewer will not be happy because even after the course you answered only 6/10 questions.

Without Certificate, no Interview call. With Certificate, the chances of failing an interview is more. What is the solution?

Live up to the Certification. Do the course honestly. Do not do the course only for Certificate.
