Our Purpose
We facilitate the process of validating your credentials to worldwide service buyers via collaborative Work Experience Builders(WEBs).

What Is CertificationPoint?
An online college(or trade school) project-based learning and career development marketplace for students and individuals looking for a career change. CertificationPoint allows clients(service buyers) to award students project-based learning opportunities. Online collaborative tools allow for onsite and/or remote team project management. Businesses(Service Buyers) and students create online profiles and portfolios, submit proposals for jobs, and following successful collaboration...receive payment from the Service Buyer via the CertificationPoint platform. CertificationPoint also allows for centralized credential management for both businesses(service buyers) and students along with an innovative student workforce development knowledgebase.

Why Should You Choose 'CP'? (#2) We continuously strive to understand the twists and turns in the unique journey which unfolds upon high school graduation. With this unique knowledge we are able to help you craft a successful pathway.








How Did We Come Up With The Name CertificationPoint?

Certification - Verification of Knowledge
Point - Greek translation is 'Simeio' which means focus.

When we put the two words together, we come up with a "focus on the verification of knowledge".

How does CertitificationPoint accomplish this? Through the 'Work Experience Builders'. 'Work Experience Builders' enable not only college and high school students, but individuals seeking a career change, to gain relevant hands-on experience via training on real-world work projects and the completion of certification exams.

Mission: CertificationPoint has a two-fold mission - (1) Assist students, both college and trade school, to successfully scale the trajectory of their career goals via collaborative or individually based work experience builder/placement opportunities; (2) Connect organizations and individuals needing quality work completed successfully, at fair market rates, with students talent focused on meeting the established requirements.




Who Is Serty 'The Pointer'?

Serty is our mascot! Serty is a pointer dog breed, which is know for having strong instincts when it comes to locating and POINTing in the direction of its target. FOCUS is this breeds calling card as well as lifting the front leg in the direction of its target. We both have many commonalities

Our site members are called "CERTPOINTEERS", during various types of career journeys marked for future success!
