I applaud any effort to distinguish serious professionals. I think the continuing education part is important in this regard.  I am very impressed with the professional approach, as well as the speed with which this initiative is progressing. I believe it is a good way to present highly qualified people to prospective clients, and make them feel reassured that they are dealing with professionals who will have their best interest in mind.
