At a company big enough to have a dedicated HR department, ass covering is always a priority: When you hire people without knowing anything at all about the actual job they are going to do, a certificate from somebody saying the candidate can do that job is evidence of due diligence - and takes no actual work on the part of the interviewer, vs. asking to see examples of a candidate's work, guessing whether it's relevant to the position in question, etc. An offlist message mentioned a certification program for the GIMP that costs $120 and, per the curriculum on the website, appears to be legit. Any experienced user could probably blow through it in a day or so, unless it is necessary to memorize "wrong answers" to pass. :o) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
