How Harvard HBX CORe is viewed?

Opinions on Harvard HBX CORe?
As an engineering undergrad, would adding the Harvard HBX CORe, Wharton Business Analytics Specialization or Wharton Business & Financial Modeling specializations (or anything similar to these types of supplemental education programs) be appropriate or beneficial to have on a resume? So long as you don't mislead anyone into thinking you got a degree from there and was accurate in your representation of what it is, does it look like pretentiousness over something that's not a big deal or does it "show initiative" that you went out of your way to gain an idea of how things work business-wise?
