Re: wc3 web certification program [via Web Education Community Group]

I also love this idea, and have discussed this many times with various web ed fanatics. I think we will probably look into this in the future, but in the short term, we are better off focussing on creating our educational and outreach materials. Setting up a certification program and getting it recognised/valued is really hard to do.
