CEH is a fucking joke created by a former marketing professional and it shows. It's always been a ho-hum cert that attests to the fact that you once heard about this nmap thing, but it was cheap resume fodder for someone looking for their first industry position. They successfully lobbied the DoD to make it an option for 8570 compliance and, after becoming a government contractor, doubled the price immediately afterward. CEH never taught anything useful or lasting even at its former price point, and it only exists now to soak up mandatory spending of government cheddar. (The cynic in me speculates that this was their intention all along.) Don't bother with it unless someone else is footing the bill.
