No, or at least not credibly. Lots of cowboys though.

So far, the quality of such schemes has been so poor that they've
either been ignored by the clueful, or actually seen as a negative
attribute for a candidate. Certainly anyone who _thinks_ that their CIW
qualification is meaningful is certainly clueless.

CIW is the best of the bunch, and the widest known. It's still an
extremely low standard though, really just not worth bothering about.
