Is it amateurish to put self-study financial modeling course badges on Linkedin?

I finished the ACRE Accelerator and don't know if adding the badge does anything to boost my Linkedin. I'm not trying to break into the industry, but I am trying to advance and get more exposure & credibility. Would putting a modeling course badge on my Linkedin hurt me more than help me? Does it even help?
