Hi all 😃

I have the possibility to set the ACE Exam but i dont know much about it.

I aint gonna be paying hundreds of pounds to learn about Flash having used it for several years.

The question is, is it worth it? Will it help me get a junior Flash Development role?

What i dont seem to understand is there is no Actionscript 3 ACE exam, either Flash CS3 or Flex Builder 2 however i am sure i read that the certification only lasts until the end of a product lifecycle, in other words, CS4 and Flex 3 are both out now. So is going for certification just a waste of time quite literally?

“Well done you passed but your ACE certification is now invalid, thanks for using VUE”.

Does anyone have any experience?

Cheers
