BA Certificate at Northwestern !!

Hi All

I have an MBA in marketing and have done BS in statistics from India, Also had a two year corporate sales experience in a leading airline company in India, have been in US for the Last three years now and havent worked since.
I would like to fresh start my career as a Business Analyst , I am aware that it is pretty tough to get that first interview call cuss everyone in the field has 5 -6 years of experience but i guess everyone once had to start somewhere.
I came across this certificate program that Northwestern offers and is a endorsed education provider of IIBA. The Courses included for the Certification are:
-- Changing role of the BA
-- Initiating Projects and Elicitation of Requirements
-- Developing Process-Centric Business Requirements through Process Models and use cases
-- Principals of Business Process Management

Is this going to be of any help to me ? will this be the stepping stone to get into BA something that i am desperately looking for? Any input in this regard will be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks in advance!

PS:I dont have any prior IT knowledge
