The degree of evaluation increases as the level of certification increases. Results are discussed with the participants and records are entered by computer and are tracked. The objectives will be available for those wishing to challenge a level. Remember, course evaluation is clear and objective. If one challenges and is unable to meet the certification criteria it indicates an uniformed risk and an inaccurate personal abilities assessment.
Certification is a process.
Certification documents the participant's demonstrated skills and knowledge proficiency at a point in time that is witnessed by peers and the instructor. New abilities are defined and limitations are clarified. When performance has been qualified, participants know what they can do and often more importantly what they can't do. Course participants are encouraged to informally audit courses they have completed free, at any time, world-wide, as space permits. This ensures that participants keep up to date, complete skill sheets, certify new skills, practice, gain decision making experience and learn in different environments, from different instructors.
