resume/CV question: where to list credentials?

[mrbigstuff]

I'm on the fence about some revisions to my resume. I initially had my education and credentials at the top, moved them to the last part but now I need the credentials front and center. In this case, they are more important than education, with experience being the most important (should go without saying, eh?).

I'm conflicted on making something like credentials (in my case certifications) the topmost thing but I really have to emphasize them. What do you do?
