A+ Certificate
I just reveived my A+ certificate today and i must say i am really disappointed on the way it looks. I was reading another thread on this topic and there were many people that said they should forget the small tool kit and improve the way the certificate looks, which i totally agree with. The ID card is preety poor allso (was expecting something more like hard plastic rather than a small piece of carton). Ah well....it's about what you know not about that piece of paper but they could of definitely put a little more effort in.

The certificate isn't the important part... the certification is the important part. After all, you're not gonna take your certificates with you to an interview...

Ah, but it is a psychological thing. If a person pays x amount for a exam, passes it & gets the new cred, it's great to get a nice looking cert (especially when us old timers who have received the old style certs which are alot better looking).
It's like the good old days when you bought Dos 5 or 6, it came in a box and by the content and the weight, you felt as the money you just spend was worth it. Now a days a thin CD that weights practically nothing for double the cost  Ah, sometimes I miss those days...However I do agree with what you said about Quote:

 If I *had* a wall... I still wouldn't put the A+ and N+ on it. I actually keep mine in my National Record of Achievement folder (anyone else remember or still use theirs!?!) just in case I'm asked to produce them for any reason...

I agree the certification counts, but as Wargnek said, and i also believe in: It's all psychological
 so they should make them better. My opinion...City&Guilds Level 2 & 3 CompTIA A+ Certified
