It really depends. A lot of the certifications out there today have as much value as if you pulled it out of a cracker-jack box. The easiest way to see if a certification is worthwhile is to check out job listings and such and see what their requirements are. If multiple listings list the certification as a plus or requirement then it's a good certification. But on the other side of the coin, if you don't see the certification listed anywhere as a requirement, then it's probably not worth the certificate it's printed on .
