CEH good prerequisite for OSCP

Hi all
So I mentioned yesterday that I'd be attempting the OSCP but would like comments on the following;
Would anyone recommend taking CEH first before attempting OSCP. I understand it's a theoretical approach to pentesting but surely it can only help?
Always good to add a feather to your cap?

*****You can fail a test a bunch of times but what matters is that if you fail to give up or not*****
At one time they were the only game in town. The market has reacted by building a better mouse trap or in this case - certification.

I'll look into PTP v4...seems like a good stepping stone.
Im so confused now!
What do you all think of this;

I think this looks like a great place to start and then move onto OSCP. Plus the courses and exams are accredited with CREST, GHCQ and UCLAN.
Thoughts???

What I meant is that I think the Masters is good to go for, over the 2 year period but the pentester course which is certified by CREST might be good foundation study before attempting OSCP.

From what I can tell, the Crest Registered Penetration Tester (CRT) exam is practical based and can only be taken at designated locations in UK, USA, Australia and Singapore. So you may need to fly from South Africa.
The eCPPT to OSCP route is probably a better option as they have similar exam formats.
Once you get your OSCP, you can "upgrade" to CREST CRT
