Had to choose between a certification and a bootcamp for project management

I picked the PMP certification over a six-week agile bootcamp because my boss said it would look better on a resume, but now I'm wondering if the hands-on practice would have helped more in my actual day-to-day work - anyone else regret going the theory route?

Oh great, stuck between being book smart and actually useful.

Ha @grace_bailey, at least you know which end of a hammer to hold! I'd trade all my diplomas for that.

Wait, are you saying you're actually useless? That's insane. Book smart is super useful - my accountant can't stand me without his spreadsheets. You've got the tools, just gotta point 'em at the right problem.
