ProCert Labs is an international company.
We have developed a quality assurance standard for
courseware and curriculum products based on modern instructional
design
theory and exam objectives correlation. Our unique
process has been in development since 1998 and has been progressively
refined to establish unprecidented credibility and acceptance.
Since its official launch, ProCert Labs has attracted the attention
of key certification vendors looking for third-party quality assurance.
ProCert Labs has also attracted the attention of courseware vendors
looking to demonstrate third-party validation of quality courseware
products. Students of certification have come to respect the ProCert
Labs Tested service mark as a symbol of quality and assurance. Courseware
that bears the ProCert Labs Tested service mark is found to cover 100
percent of the related certification exam objectives, and demonstrates
an ability to effectively teach the principles required by a specific
professional certification program.
Objectivity
Measuring courseware objectively is of primary importance for ProCert
Labs. The ProCert Labs testing
methodology is based on a three-tier testing process beginning with
a measurement of the course's correlation to published exam objectives.
We also apply accepted instructional design theories to the course to
determine its relevance to the published topic and its ability to present
concepts in a learnable manner. Finally, ProCert Labs conducts a benchmark
comparison with a standardized
set of criteria to determine where the course stands in relation
to a common set of elements.
Modalities
ProCert Labs provides objective and reliable quality assurance testing
for every conceivable modality,
including Print Video CBT, ILT, IBT, PDA and Assessment Exams in various
delivery methods. A flexible Web-based testing process allows ProCert
Labs to incorporate additional modalities as they become available in
the marketplace.
The Right People
The ProCert Labs management
team is experienced in courseware quality assurance programs and
has been directly involved in developing previous incarnations of this
process for leading certification vendors like Microsoft. The ProCert
Labs management team uses online tools and utilities to distribute,
manage and compile courseware reviews from a group of highly qualified
reviewers.
The Right Tools
To deliver and manage ProCert Labs' distinctive testing methodology,
we have built a comprehensive set of online tools and utilities that
allow courseware vendors to monitor testing progress at any time from
anywhere. Our interactive reporting
provides secure, inclusive details of each confidential review including
expected delivery dates and anticipated results.
Promoting Quality Courseware
ProCert Labs also has access to a respected arsenal of communications
media that help get the word out about quality courseware. The ProCert
Partner program is designed to help courseware vendors take advantage
of Professional Certification publications to market their products.
