Re: Certification

Hi Michael,

This is a great idea and I'm interested to be part of this group.

Speaking for DALIBO, we have started a process to build an evaluation program for our trainings.
These post-training evaluations allow our trainees to go through a series of questions and rate their understanding of the course.

Although we do not use the word "certification", it is very close and we'd happy to offer to our trainees the possibility to get a community-backed certification.

For now the series of questions we have built are in French, but we'd be happy to translate them, share them with a dedicated group and eventually transfer this content to the PGDG. We can also provide feedback on the open source tools we use to run the evaluations.

Creating a certification is a long process and it can easily lead to endless discussions without anybody doing actual work. I think the key to success here is to assemble a small group of a person who effectively have a quantified amout of time to spend on it and a concrete training experience.

Regards,
