Kevin,
You may want to get creative. Try interviewing some instructors for the
various cards you want to collect and get a student list from them. Go to
his/her students and ask what they thought of the class. If an instructor
won't provide references, you've got to ask yourself "Why?"
I don't think deciding one commercial certification agency or another is the
way to go. If you need education, look for the person who can give you the
best education. Socrates, for example, was not affiliated with any institution
of higher learning as far as I know, and he came with excellent student
references. Go find your own Socrates.
