The ISSA is a good mid-level cert. There are several good mid-levels certs out there (ACE is another). As far as better is concerned, Top-level certs such as ACSM or NASM are a bit more respected.

Yeah right at the top. As for the original poster's question, ISSA shouldnt give you any trouble at all. It's a pretty good program, but the fact that you take the test at home doesnt force you to memorize or truly understand all of the material. You certainly can if you want to, but to pass the test you pretty much need a general understanding of training and the book.
