If tomorrow I and my colleagues which are connected to QGIS project will change company (today it is just an unreal hypothesis, but it is possible), my old company will continue to have certification, but I think it is not correct. I think it is useful to have a certificate for "QGIS Trainer" and that is mandatory for company to have one or more trainer in its organization chart. How? probably the same rules of company certification can be used (to actively contribute to community and project). <br></div><div><pre><br></pre><div>Example 2 - Trainer and student<br></div><div>We have completed our first course with certification. Actually a student which follow a course of 30h and an exam about QGIS have a certificate for his CV. I and my colleagues which work every day with QGIS do not have any certificate or we can "buy" a certificate for ourselves, but IMHO it is not clear the difference between trainer and student and it is not nice. <br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers, <br></div><div>R<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><span class="colour" style="color:rgb(153, 153, 153)"><i><span class="font" style="font-family:verdana, sans-serif"><span class="size" style="font-size:10.6667px">Eng.
