I am seriously considering pursuing one, since it can be sold to hiring managers as a sign of professional competence.

Look at it from a cost/benefit ratio standpoint. Will someone with this cerifification make $2000 more over her professional life than she would without?

So it takes a round trip ticket and three days of vacation. Get the company to pay for it or write it off as a business expense.

Good investment, easy money, instant credibility to many hiring managers.
