I can't find the article I read but I was reading on this debate on just how many academic degree abbreviations are appropriate to put on your resume? I said acronymns before...whichever.
Anyway, do you think you should list only professional certifications after your name on your resume or do you list your master's degree as well? Also do you only list the ones applicable to the job you are applying for but still include the certifications within the body of your resume? In the debate I read some were saying it came across as arrogant to list a Master's degree on a resume that way. They accepted it for a Ph.d. or some other higher level graduate degree, however.
For example, suppose you saw this name:
Jane Doe, JD, MBA, CPA, PMI-PMP, PMI-ACP (That is someone's real title).
Is that too much? Or, would you proudly list all of it.
Yes, I'm bored. I graduated from school, submitted my application to graduate school, and now I don't know what to do with myself except study for the next certification exam but I'm waiting for my books to arrive from amazon. LOL

Don't miss out on something great just because it might also be difficult.
