Why isn't there an Adobe Certified Associate Exam for After Effects?

Question

I've been traching my students Video production, and as you all know one of Premiere's best partners for this is After Effects.  I get my students to pass the ACA for Premiere Pro (we're on CS5 still) but there is nothing for After Effects.  Why is this?  These types of certifications are excellent for students - it looks great on college resumes and can count toward post-secondary exams for them in some schools.  Any idea why there isn't an ACA for this?  I know there is the ACE, but from what I've taken I know the ACE exams are more difficult than the ACA exams.  I think the ACA curriculum is great for high school students, and the ACA exam is a perfect exit exam for this age.

iTunes doesn't handle the import of photos from a digital camera including from the iPhone's Camera Roll, which this would involve along with creating the albums or folders on your computer for the albums created on the iPhone from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
The Camera Roll is for temporary storage as with any other digital camera and photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Although photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup, it isn't a good idea to depend on your iPhone alone for this which can be lost or stolen, or on your iPhone's backup which includes a significant amount of other data in the event a problem develops with the backup.
Since photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, you can create albums/folders for select photos on your computer to include photos imported from your iPhone's Camera Roll and for other photos on your computer for transfer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process, which is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone.
