Does anyone know any good webmaster certifications / courses? Are the ones by Smart Certify good ones (CIW foundations / designer / administrator)? They say that they are endorsed by IWA and Comptia, but I want to know if they are worth it.
Any info would be nice.

Brainbench, maybe .... but most 'certificates' from webmaster courses are better used for wallpaper. A product, i.e. web site, is more impressive than a certificate.

I looked into brainbench and only found some certificates for the individual parts (ie. HTML 4.0, Java Script, Front Page 2000, etc..) I already have the HTML 3.2 and the Front Page 2000 developer master certificates, but I don't think that they are much good.
Before I started looking into certificates, I never heard of Brainbench, so I don't know if they are very reputable.
I know that the IWA and Comptia are pretty well known in the IT industry, so I want to get one with their endorsement. The brainbench certification that I got for HTML was suppose to have the IWA endorsement on it, but it doesn't for some reason (maybe it is for 4.0 and not 3.2)
Anyways, I am also looking for some training so that I can expand my knowledge and get more jobs. I have currently only built about 20 sites commercially over the last year, so I want to get some more and make more money.
