Skill has become the global currency of 21st-century economies according to Certiport.com. It can be acquired from different avenues from training to simulation and even actual experiences. The question that remains is how can anyone prove that he has the skill. One answer to that question is through certification. There are many trusted and sanctioned certification organizations in the world and one of them is Certiport.

In coordination with the University of Technology and Applied Sciences, vouchers have been given to willing and interested staff or students to take certification online. Luckily, 6 staff from ETC were awarded exam vouchers among several others including hundreds of students announcing their interest as well. In coordination with Ms. Zuwaina Al Riyami, exams were scheduled throughout the entire month of June.
