CGMA Classes on Resume?

Shylock

I've just began taking some environment art program classes at CGMA 3D and was wondering if I should include all of these classes on my resume when I do make it? I've seen a few other environment artist include these classes or just the certificate of completion on their list of education. For me I do think that it would be a good idea to include these classes because currently I am in a graphic design program at college and I just want to be able to show that I furthered my education past that. I am aware that the portfolio is what sells the whole thing but I'm just curious as to if I should or not.

Especially if you don't have any relevant work experience, it may be good to list the classes out as long as it is relevant information and doesn't look like you're just padding things.

Great that was also something I was going to ask because I don't really have much else to include at the moment

I do includes these online classes in my own resume and talked about it in interviews in the past. You should too . You won't land a job just because of this, only your actual talent will, but at least this shows that you are really serious about things and that you aren't afraid of learning more stuff, and that's great.

Awesome thanks for letting me know. And yeah I know it won't get me the job, I just want to be able to show that I have some "formal" training as well as self teaching because I'm trying to get straight to the point, not fiddle around with college lol

Add em in ur resume, at the very least, it shows you've taken active measures to further improve yourself.
