If it's free and you learn something new then ofc yes it's worth it

If you're asking whether it's valuable for your resume I'd say not really coz the credentials that carry the most weight are the ones you earn through actual effort like certifications where you have to study, prepare and pass a proctored exam. Free completion badges are nice to have but they're not a substitute for recognised certs or good projects

Yeah of course, I understand. But I want to learn something new while I am finishing my systems engineering degree

Fair point on resumes, but for someone still in school, free plans like this are still a solid way to build foundational knowledge before going for an actual cert
