What kinds of professional certifications are there for marketers?

Are there any professional certifications (i.e. PMP, CFA, CPA etc.) for marketers? Please don’t suggest degrees (i.e. MBA, MMR, MS etc.).

There aren’t any commonly-accepted ones. At one point a number of years ago, the American Marketing Association instituted a Certified Professional Marketer exam, and I had one student who qualified and passed it, but I don’t know if they still offer it, and it certainly never became a generally-accepted standard.
