Columbia CIBE worth it?

I am thinking of pursing a Columbia "Certificate in Business Excellence"(CIBE). I currently work in tech as a manager at a FANG. I always wanted to work as a research analyst. I was a finance grad but ended up in tech. Has anyone had any experience with the CIBE benefits such as access to Columbia's career services. My thought process is once I get my CIBE I can use my connections in the program or through career services, and with Columbia on the resume it will at least allow me an interview. Any opinions on this are always helpful!
