OK, I've been pondering this a while now ... not just since you asked, MsG., but for a while.
I don't think that 'CPS' should be a test that one can prepare for without proper schooling. One wouldn't take the bar or the CPA test, without the proper schooling.
With that said, I think that there should be a certification course one could take. Not necessarily a 2- or 4- year degree, but perhaps an intensive 6- or 12- month course, with the test at the end.
The MOUS should be involved in this, typing, filing, etc., no doubt about it. Other things I would suggest are negotiation skills ... confidentiality courses ... ethics ... communication skills ... the Internet as a research tool ... business writing ... basic project management ... customer service.
Just my opinion.
