I haven't heard of either ISEB at all I'm afraid. The one that seems standard in the public sector seems to be ITIL where I've seen a number of jobs advertised that require it, although I guess there may be some sort of "or equivalent qualification" get out that I'd not paid attention to.
I'd basically say only do these types of short, multiple choice examined courses if you have a good reason for needing the certification. If it's just to learn new skills or improve existing ones, you may well be disappointed. The outcome of the courses really does seem to be that you pass the exam, not necessarily anything more. Fine if that's all you want, but frustrating if you are hoping for more.
