Hi everyone - I'm thinking of doing my first certification ever (Adobe Dreamweaver). Since I didn't see an Adobe section under "Other" certs, I thought I would ask here. Has anyone done any Adobe exams? How difficult were they? I'm using the "Classroom in a Book" to study - is this the best available? How much prep did it take? Also - I realize that the ACA is a lower level certification than the ACE, however, is the ACA worth anything in the employment world's eyes (obviously the exam would be easier 
) Any info I could get on the Adobe exams would be very helpful. Thanks!

I never knew adobe did certifications but to be honest I would'nt bother with them.
I never seen a job asked for them and to be honest I think they would rather see a portfolio of what you can do rather than a piece of paper. -

This was the first I had also heard of Adobe certifications.
I think a portfolio for employers would look much better overall so I would skip them.*Associate's of Applied Sciences degree in Information Technology-Network Systems Administration

I've seen them advertised on Certiport. When I was doing my Office 2007 certification. -

I needed the ACE for photoshop at a previous job about 6 years ago and it was not that difficult, but I knew photoshop well. I have no idea about how hard or how the test may have changed since then. I want to say back then you did not even have to got to a testing center, the test was taken at my work.

I was wondering about this as well. I have been using PS for about 7+ years and thought about getting the ACE as a nice milestone achievement. I know the exams are expensive though
