If you really wanna start understanding how to PenTest you should
forget CEH its for script kiddies, you MUST try - From BackTrack
Creators!!! Offensive-Security Courses.

CEH teach you how to use tools but Offensive Security 101 course teach
you how to think like a hacker developing your own scripts or
exploits, and isc2 gives 40 CPE's for that course. Is excellent, and
the certification is called OCSP - Offensive Security Certified
Professional (you can get it after passing a 24 hour real hacking
test).

Check it out:

Cheers!!!!!
