true, but there are certain certifications that ARE respected and not easy to get.

someone wise once told me:

NSCA is very highly recommended; there are two types of certifications, the CSCS (Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist), and CPT (Certified Personal Trainer). You need a college degree to take the CSCS, but don't need a degree for the CPT. If you ever want to train athletes, having a CSCS is a must.
