Is 704 certification worth ?

I was planning to give 704 Advanced DBA Certification.
Wanted to know is it really worth doing that certification , as how
much this certification is valued for?
I am into a organization where managers really don't know about the
level of 704 certification.
does anybody have any experience getting certified with 704 which
really helped them ?

Thx
Ashish

If you already have a job, certification is usually not valued much
compared to the level of contribution that they can see you make to
the company in your job. It is more valuable when looking for a new
job.

Not many people reviewing resumes proabably have heard of the advanced
certification, but if you list both the DBA certification and the
Advanced DBA certification, then it might be more noticeable.

If you want to get more knowledge. I think pass 704 is necessary.
