Hello Susan,
I hold both the credentials what I can say about the two are:
1. The scope of practice for the ACE HFS is greater than that of the CET.
2. The ACSM CET is a speciality certification the ACE HFS is not.
3. The ACE HFS clearly states that you possess advanced skills
4. The ACMS CET does not.
3. The ACE HFS is NCCA accredited.
4. The ACSM CET is not NCCA accredited.
5. The ACSM CET goes into greater detail regarding the pathophysiology of cancer and cancer exercise programming.
Personally, I believe the credentials complement one another.
Hope this is of help to you.
