Are any of you Adobe certified? Does it make any impact on bookings or your rate?

No. I’m a commercial editor and I’ve literally never even been asked for a resume so people wouldn’t know even if I had a certification. They just look at my site / body of work.

I don’t even know what that is.

I am not but I doubt it would make much difference. What gets you bookings and a good rate is having a good network. Skill is secondary to the social game we all have to play

No, nobody cares. If you have a reputation and a body of work to back it up that’s all the certification you need. If they care they might not be the right kind of clients, for me at least. The only times anyone even cares what platform I use (Premiere, Avid, Resolve) is if I’m working for a studio that wants me to use their gear.

Certifications only help you if you want to sell training, as a working editor yes they are worthless, useless, etc
