What is the actual status of this certification. Is it required to actually
work in the field much like an RN or a licensed civil engineer, or is it
just a nice certification that tell everyone the holder has proven skills?

I will leave the URISA response to others, however, the Association of
Ontario Land Surveyors www.aols.org has extended its profession to include
Geographic Information Managers.
Upon application and articles, a successful candidate would actually carry a
professional designation (O.L.S. O.L.I.P.) as opposed to a certificate.
Under NAFTA and GATT this professional designation theoretically allows the
holder to work in foreign jurisdictions much more easily than a certificate
would.

I am wondering what your thoughts are regarding the Urban and Regional
Information Systems Association (URISA) certification?
Also, wondering how people can be held back professionally because
GIS was not considered "a profession"?
