Association Certified Ruby Programmer.

I've recently decided I'd like to switch to being a Ruby on Rails developer. The languages I have the most experience in are Java, C and
Perl. So I've been thinking about getting a certification to help me with landing a entry level position.

The RACRP isn't that expensive at $150, and I'm not sure how hard i= t is,
but I'd imagine the harder it is the better (right?).

Is it worth the time?

Thanks
