Cobalt is sponsoring the Certification Network Group's June Meeting, 'Managing Candidates or Herding Cats?' on June 16, 2010. Click here to RSVP now for this FREE event.

The meeting will be a real world discussion of the pros and cons of certification candidate management systems (CCMS) – what they can and cannot do and how to go about determining the system that is best for you.

Join CNG as a panel of four distinguished certification professionals (representing small, mid-sized and large certification bodies) discuss how and why they decided to implement a CCMS and their process and experiences in:

  • Establishing goals for a certification candidate management system (CCMS)
  • Determining their needs
  • Selecting an approach or system (off-the-shelf v. custom)
  • Implementing their CCMS
  • The extent to which they achieved their goals.


Panelists include:

Trish Seratorre – Automotive Service Excellence (ASE)
Diane Wheatley – American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS)
Kathleen Butler – National Council for Interior Design Qualifications (NCIDQ)
Marianne Horahan - American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC)

About CNG

What is now known as the Certification Network Group was started by Judy Rosenbloom in the early 1980’s. She was the executive director for a certifying agency who occasionally called together her colleagues for informal discussion and advice for problems, issues she was facing. Over the years, the group grew to sometimes include invited speakers.
