The proof is in the pudding.  IMHO which is often not so H the cert game is 
nothing more than  a lucrative revenue generator. For either the test givers or 
the vender pusher or the land of test king. Buy the initials if you must, hands 
on and a solid understanding of how and why the stack works be it network or 
cpu will serve you well.

- Most of their instructors are unqualified to answer any questions
that are not in their training books.

This is why I only do them as "challenge" certifications, and then only 
when I'm looking for another job (managers like to see lots of initials 
after your name).

Does *any* security cert say anything about the individual to whom it's 
issued .. nope, just that they're persistent.

My $0.02.
