Certification of persons is the third party verification that an individual possesses the knowledge, skills and abilities (competencies) to do a job. These competencies have to be demonstrated according to specific standards and guidelines. The certification process includes a globally accepted process of assessments and periodic re-assessments of the competence of the certified person using objective criteria to measure competence. The process provides an assurance that the certified person meets the requirements of the certification scheme.

The certification is renewable periodically, subject to the certified individual demonstrating competence in line with the criteria during each re-assessment.
