Becoming Certified

[quillpro]

How does one become a certified Filemaker Developer. I live in South Central Pennsylvania near Harrisburg, Lancaster, and Baltimore, MD. I have seen courses offered in my area but none seem have any certification program. Any thoughts on the matter are greatly appreciated.

I have gathered some more info from some other posts. But if anybody has anything else to add I am still appreciative.

I too am looking into certification. Here is a page that can help you find the closest trainers for the certification program

I've bought the FileMaker professional series training manual and am going through quite thoroughly!

Just wondered if anyone had any news on whether FileMaker would be upgrading the exam to accomodate v8.5 anytime soon, as I dont want to shell out £100 and find out I've got to go through the whole process again to get my 8.5 stripes.

Thanks
