But I am one of the around 1000 people with a PSM III certification (and then some) :)
I'm coaching, mentoring, training Scrum Masters and Product Owners alike and want (need?) to stay up-to-date - also as a good example for constant learning. I don't regret a single training or certification I did (I wouldn't recommend the Agile Ninja though), compared to other courses the agile trainings are more interactive, haptic and overall modern and fun. I don't think of the market as saturated, but I would say that one CSM, or one CSPO training in your CV is not enough any more - as it has been some years ago.
I know. Let me rephrase: "I was among the first 1000 to pass the PSM III - and the amount of learning for this one is crazy. I'd say that without significant relevant job experience you simply can't pass."

Hate to break it to you but there are more than 1000 now!
As I said, don't hate the player, hate the game. The learnings are what matter, not the badges.

And I like my badge :)
