Well, here is my opinion. I know (LOL) you've all been breathlessly waiting. The CPS rating is only as good as the work ethic/determination/goal-setting/vision of the person who has attained it. If a person gets a CPS and thinks that it is an automatic "in" to a better job, that is not real-world thinking in my opinion. That would be like thinking that just because you've earned your 4-year degree that you deserve a promotion. To get ahead, there are other things besides "book smarts" that need to be considered, but that is a different talk show. One of the overriding questions here, IMHO, seems to be, "Will earning the CPS designation will get a person a better job," and the answer is: not necessarily. I don't have an overly high opinion of IAAP, although I think that the gathering of like-minded/like-careered people is a good thing. There certainly is value in working hard to earn the CPS; however, I think the value to the title-holder in the workplace is waaaaay oversold by IAAP.
