At the time of the merger, the people who were moving the Macromedia
certification data across to the Adobe certification database, screwed up
some of the data. For example all the MM advanced certifications turned out
to be standard certifications in the Adobe database. I had to write and kick
up a fuss to get my certification changed to reflect the Advanced status.
And it took them months to correct the mistake. (The people who said
they'd correct the message said they'd send me something to compensate me
for the error - I got a JPG of the logo sent by email. Thanks!)
Because of this error in my case, and the fact that it took them so long to
fix it I wouldnt have a lot of confidence in the listing. I'd say if
someone was listed there, you could be reasonably confident that's correct.
But the absence of their name? I dont think i'd be prepared to make a
hire/dont hire decision based on that.
My recommendation is that if certification is important to you, ask to see
the certificate and go by that.

That is sad to see. But here's good news: there coincidentally happens to
be an online meeting today (private, NDA) on the very subject of
certifications. I'll be sure to ask about this there and report back what I
can.

Heya,
If someone claims to be an Certified ColdFusion MX 7 developer, but I
can't find them here:
http://www.adobe.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?Id=19865method=full
Does that mean they are fibbing? Or is that list out of date, or
incorrect. Do you get put on that list automatically? Or do you have to
submit your details separately to taking the test?
I can see our buddy Mike Kear on there, so I know its not 100% wrong...
