For 2013, at least, there was only Certified Professional. No more Certified User or Certified Associate. Not sure if that will remain the same for 2014.
I wouldn't recommend trying to take the test as a beginner if you're paying for it. If you go to AU, you'll get to take the test for free, and in that case absolutely - I'd say take it, and see what happens. You'll at least get an idea of where you need to work on things.
THAT SAID, if you've got a decent amount of experience - and I believe the recommendation was 400 hours of use, but don't ask me where I saw that - the test is RIDICULOUSLY easy. (Full disclosure: when I took the test, I was sitting at around 6,000 hours of Inventor use, versions 2009-2013. I and another guy from my company took the 2013 certification test at AU2012. We both finished in under an hour, and both passed with flying colors. There were a few things there that I hadn't done much with in the past, but NOT a lot.
For me, 90% of the stuff on the Inventor 2013 Certified Professional exam is stuff I'd expect any entry-level employee to be able to do.
