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.

The CEPT from Infosec Institute recently added a practical portion to their Certified Expert Pen-Testing certification that requires you to find two vulnerabilities (one Windows & one Linux), write shellcode, and a workable exploit that will be tested. It also requires you to reverse engineer a Windows (based) binary. Of course this also includes a written portion prior to the lab.
The CPTE from Mile2 also have a practical portion to their Certified Pen-Testing Expert certification that requires you to conduct a full-pentest, written assessment, and countermeasures to present as a complete pen-testing assessment.
