As far as I know there isn’t any official standard for a Post Graduate Certificate like there are for Bachelor’s Degrees. These certificates wont be accredited. So the important thing is who is giving it to you? You’re basically relying on the reputation of the school to lend weight to the certificate. If the school is known to provide a good education, the certificate might help you. In the computing field there are dozens of certifications that you can get. For example Microsoft Certified Software Engineer (MCSE). The Microsoft name is a big part of the value.
