Personnel Certification

The certification of professionals is a modern, internationally recognized process through which individuals can demonstrate their competence through examinations in a fair, objective, and reliable manner.

In today’s highly competitive job market—where professionals are expected to keep pace with the rapid evolution of digital transformation (Industry 4.0), technology, and industrial developments, while also navigating the specialized fields of engineering, technical works, and information technology—certification allows them to prove their technical expertise, professionalism, and competitive edge among peers working in the same sector.

In general, a professional’s competence can be built through formal education, continuous vocational training, and hands-on experience (including non-formal and informal learning). The certification of knowledge, skills, and competencies acquired along this path benefits not only the individual professional but also the employing company and society at large, by ensuring more effective, reliable, and productive work performance.
