A great idea with huge potential. I expect it will make a real impact.

I applaud any effort to distinguish serious professionals. I think the continuing education part is important in this regard.

So far I'm impressed with quality and detailed level of thought and feedback people are putting in, plus the fact that people are motivated by what's good for the industry rather than their own self-interest.
