Skill certification has become a prerequisite for employment and career progression; innovation is no exception. Innovation competency consists of Knowledge, Skills, and Attitude which need to be identified and developed in a structured way.

Organisations, professionals, recruiters, and job seekers understand the need for solid innovation competencies as the only way forward to achieve sustainable professional development and organisational growth. Innovation certification provides the right solution for employers and professionals and reduces the risks and costs associated with the innovation activities.
