Anyone Done the ACE Certification

I went on a job, interview/information meeting today. I have been considering a big career change for about six months now, and I am about ready to give it a shot.
I met with a personal trainer at the areas top fitness center today. He was kind enough to speak with me after I sent a letter and resume out to, actually several, fitness centers inquiring about positions and beginning my new career.He recommended either the W.I.T.S certification or the ACE certification. I am leaning toward ACE because I can study at home in my "spare" time.
He is willing to work with me, either personally, or through his other trainers, but I need the cert first because my field of study isn't related to exercise science or anything like that. I'm ready to begin my career move. Does anyone have any advice on certification, testing or anything else that would be useful?
Thanks in advance, ladies.

Lorie- I have no idea what either ACE or W.I.T.S. certifications are.....but if they are what I am assuming they are- something to do with gym/health care- you could "pop"

Thanks, Michelle, I told the PT I talked to yesterday that I want to love my job. Right now, I just go to work everyday. It's wearing on me. I will look into that certification you mentioned.
Thanks, IslandGirl and Miranda for the links/comments. I have checked them out. I will also lurk on gym rats to see who's there and what I can find out.
