Subject: Re: [Qgis-developer] [Qgis-psc] QGIS Certification IRC meeting, Thrus 12 Feb, 2015<br>
<br>
Thanks for the link. I would have liked to be involved but couldn't be there today.<br>
<br>
I know this was discussed briefly before but I'm still unsure of the answer. Is the main push to test tool competency or is underlying knowledge of spatial problems and processes part of the purpose? I have materials from my GIS intro course I teach for the University of Calgary that is more focused on understanding that uses QGIS. I am willing to share these but the how to sections are older and would need to be updated (I teach this course every 18 months).<br>
<br>
I realize that this will be QGIS focused and to provide something similar to commercial certification the focus needs to mostly focus on tool specific competency. I would however suggest that having a solid coverage of basic GIS knowledge would be a step up over commercial certification programs where it is not uncommon to see people with credentials on paper who understand very little.<br>
<br>
If someone can fill me in where we are at that level of specifics I would appreciate it.<br>
<br>
