i think a certification program should represent a level of knowledge
gained. in perfect world you be able to gauge what a person knows from his
certification.
Certification doesn't need to be tough, it just needs to be accurate.

I would say that the certifications should include more than just CFML.
First of all, CFML isn't that tough, and a certification loses its advanteg
when any Joe can get it (no offense to anybody named Joe :) Additionally,
look at some other certifications. For example, the MCSD is more than just
knowledge of VB and VC++.
I feel that certification should show that you're a cut above the crowd, not
just somewhere with knowledge in the bare essentials.
