I wrote a column for Securityfocus some time ago that aired my concerns over GIAC dropping the practical portion of their certification process. That column resulted in a lot of feedback, with most agreeing about how GIAC bungled what was up till then, the best certification around.

A professional is not a beginner. A professional should know what they are talking about because it is their JOB to know. Myself, i never call myself an expert in something i dont know about.
I dont point out *beginners* mistakes, i point out mistakes made by professionals who claim to be omnipotent security wizards, but still doesnt know what an IDS is or how to test something.
If someone says he or she is an expert, then that person should be able to provide evidence of that and not go "huh"?. What if i heard them say that as a customer? Then i would not trust these people to babysit a personal firewall.
