SL Certification Process

This is intended as a "living" document,and will evolve with time.

Overview

Certification will be task-driven. Criteria will be outlined by assigned moderators who will act as subject matter experts (SME's) to define the criteria, check that training created by in-world schools matches (and exceeds) the levels required by the certification, and continue to update the criteria as changes to the environment take place. A list of schools will be maintained to outline where approved training for certification takes place to enable residents to develop towards certification.

Process

This process outlines the method which leads to a topic becoming available for certification.

  • Topic suggested and agreed
  • Moderator / SME assigned to the topic
  • Moderator produces outline topics to be tested at the three levels: Bsic, Intermediate and Advanced.
  • Moderator defines pre-requisites for each certification level
  • Schools develop content for training.
  • School content checked by Moderator to ensure correct coverage
  • School's capability added to the Schools List
  • Subject added to 3rd party testing capability
  • Periodic review by moderator which may result in criteria & education modification

Education

The education developed for certification will be guided by the criteria developed for each topic. Although the training should cover the topics required for certification, it should not be developed specifically to pass the certification test; education should provide a broader range of skills while still covering the criteria required for testing. All education developed for certification will be monitored by the moderators (SME's) to ensure it continues to reach the level required for certification.
