The 200 Topics

1 work role = 1 certification

Career planning requires sustained effort on a series of topics.

Taking an exam after you’ve read the answers to the test doesn’t make you an expert.

Throwing one pitch fast doesn’t make you an expert either.

In order to have fun in any sport, you start with the mechanics of motion. Knowledge of how to throw ball does not make you an expert bowler or pitcher. We all start with a game of catch, we progress toward catcher or pitcher (Bowler or Wicket Keeper).

We throw and catch for 100’s of hours with a skilled coach to reach a place where the game is fun. It might be 10,000 hours to play at the professional level.

Make your career choice.
