I believe only the "Techdegree" plan has any kind of certificate associated with it, but you could always share the link to your profile page where your points and badges can be viewed. But only someone already familiar with Treehouse would be likely to understand what they represent.

Still, a much better way to exhibit your skills to a prospective employer or client would be with a nice online portfolio. Creating one is also part of the Techdegree program; but you can build one yourself, and you can find plenty examples of them online.

I don't think so.

I don't think certificates impress employers honestly.

What impresses them is having a github portfolio / personal website with the work you did during your lessons.
