Certification: Your Return On Training Investments

By Jon Haber, President, SkillCheck Inc.

Setting a Standard

Certification programs that have made the effort to create a robust standard and build exams based on that standard provide an important service to the training market. The growth of standards, such as A+ and MCP, has provided training organizations with a wealth of training materials upon which to build successful programs. Whether providing skill standards to corporate clients, or opening educational and employment opportunities to students, organizations offering a certification as a final exam for training provide their customers an immediate ROI.
