Certified Internet Webmaster Certifications
Introduction:
The Certified Internet Webmaster (CIW) line of certifications is administered by Trinity Learning who just merged with the previous owners Prosoft Training. CIW certs are mainly focused on internet job roles such as webmaster, developer, web design, etc. The exams are vendor neutral and industry recognized.

Editor's Notes:
During the recession, Prosoft Training had a difficult time financially. In 2004, Prosoft Training Merged with Trinity Learning and I have no idea as to how this will affect their certification program, although it seems reasonable to believe there might be changes so proceed with caution. You might also want to note that in the past, the only preparation products that were available were from Prosoft. There are now a few 3rd party books and products available for some of the exams, but most of the training and products available are still from Prosoft.
