Certification - it's a challenging and sometimes contentious topic for Customer Education professionals. At CELab, we hear this question come up quite a lot. Chances are good that you may be asked to create a certification, or decide that you want to offer one.
So how do you get started? Should you even be trying to build such a program? In this "mini" episode, Adam Avramescu answers that question down including:
- Setting up certification programs, legal basis, and terminology
- Certification programs for complex software jobs
- Validity and fairness in certification exams
- Creating certification programs without high stakes
- Certification program legal risks and best practices
