Used to have meaning WITHIN the industry, not so much anymore.
Never meant anything to clients, builders, etc.
I have three of their certificates hanging on my wall, probably could just downloaded them from the web these days for all the meaning they have.

In the early days I learned a lot in the classes and training's, never felt the unity they tried to foster, dealers were so territorial back then, you're going to steal my trade secret.

Being a member of ProSource on the other hand, is priceless. Maybe not from the consumer's view, but certainly from a business aspect.
