I have a very positive attitude towards certifications in general, but the CF certifications are too much aimed at the theory and in general to easy.
Compare it against the difficulty of for example, Microsoft programming examinations, and you get a whole different picture of the person behind the test. Maybe it is different in the US, but here, MM certifications have little value in job interviews.
