    Hey,

    Is it worth getting the "The HTML Developer Certificate" from the W3 Schools website or is it useless?

    It would be near useless, displaying past work (valid XHTML/CSS) is enough to get you jobs.

    I suspect most businesses (assuming you are looking for commercial web design work) will not know who W3Schools are to give it any weight. Most businesses do not care if it is technically good as long as it meets their objectives

    I wouldn't say useless because I would look at it as personal achievement :D

    I agree with the posts above. It is useless.
    It is not a reference that people would actually care about.
