graduate certificates

[Jonass00]

my college offers graduate certificates in health sciences, biochemistry molecular biology etc. they are listed under the accelerated 1 year masters programs. is anyone familiar with these graduate certificate programs? they are listed as the same courses that one would take in the first year of masters program\medical school curriculum. I just want to know if they qualify as a post graduate gpa, and if completion of a certificate will help to improve the resume for application. thanks in advance.

Qualifies as graduate coursework if that is what you're asking.

If you have started or done AACOMAS in present/past cycles, you will see that on the graduate coursework sheet you can list the school, say Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, and then you will type in the title of the program and the degree rewarded upon completion (Masters, Certificate, etc).

As for whether it will help the resume for application, it would strongly depend on the reputation of the program and the school as well as your own performance in said program.
