Confused about CCRP and CRC?!?!

Hi everyone!

I am considering applying for a job as a clinical research nurse and the job description says the nurse must "work towards the CCRP." I am confused because apparently SoCRA (Society of Clinical Research Associates) offers this, but there is also the CRC offered through the ACRP or the Association of Clinical Research Professionals. Is the only difference between the CCRP certification and the CRC certification is who offers it? Which one is better?!?! I've read in a couple of places that SoCRA is the least recognized...is that true? I could really use some clarification! THANKS!!!
