It should give you enough breadth to understand lesson planning, language skills, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and classroom management without requiring an advanced academic commitment.
For a first job, the certificate works best when combined with demonstrable English proficiency and some form of teaching practice, observation or tutoring experience. Employers may also require a degree or other credentials depending on the country and role.
