Getting a MicroMasters as a form of continuing education while you already have a job (something that makes you more valuable and able to take on new tasks at the current job) is a great idea from a manager standpoint. Then you can use the new duties as resume building if/when you are looking for a new job. Maybe list it in a continuing education type bullet, but not in the same area you would a full MS degree. It's the new duties and skills that will help you in finding and landing the next job - not really the MicroMasters.Doing the same thing when you are unemployed is certainly better than doing nothing while looking, but it's also not going to really open any doors or make you look better than a different candidate who might have spent time doing something different (especially right now).That's my $.02
