Within an “Entity”
Open to All
Two Aspects

Basis: Open Source (Creative Commons)?
Entity would be:
Organizations (private / public) or
National level
Each entity can adopt, customize and adapt to their environment and requirements
Certification is internally recognized
Within an “Entity”

Need “certification agency” to administer
Certify individuals based on generic global model
Accredit “entities” who have internal program
Emphasis
Transparency in qualifications and accreditations
Need for stringent criteria – to earn respect
Open to All
19

www.sukad.com
Open to all who want to adopt
Can be part of national project management programs
Does not require “certification agency” for internal certifications
Stringent criteria: need proof not “blindly trust”
Industry links, especially at level 3 and 4
Which will lead to various certificates at these levels
Differentiating Factors?

Project Management has become a necessity for organizational success
… and …
is too valuable to be left for “paper certifications” to destroy it
