The answer

As long as you obtained the certificate through legitimate means, without cheating, bribery, or deception, there is no sin upon you, and there is no harm in benefiting from it in permissible work. The fact that the study was solely for the purpose of obtaining the certificate, or the high tuition fees, or the ease of the curricula, does not affect or render the certificate unlawful.
