TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Come on, Dan, "debated to death on TECHWR-L" isn't accurate. It's a gross understatement.

"Debatable"? Yeah, it's already been debated to death on TECHWR-L.

The STC in the US is pushing its own certification scheme http://www.stc.org/education/certification/certification-main though it is debatable how useful and how recognized it will be.
A good portfolio probably counts more than a certificate, though.
