Hi Tim,
I picked up the CIW associate here in Australia last year. The reason only
did the first exam, instead of a whole track. was so that I could get on
paper the fact that I understand Internet fundamentals and technology. I
wanted my CV to say Hey look at me 'I'm a Certified Internet Webmaster
Associate!"

I'm always quizzed about it by potential employers, here in OZ anyway. Many
have never heard of it, but it impresses some.

Cheers
Rob
