I don't even think the often-raised question about who would be entitled to authorize such a certification program is the hard part. Because, just as PostgreSQL itself, such a program could come to be recognized more or less by itself if a lot of people use it. The hard part are the economics of the whole thing. There is no one who has the capacity to organize such a thing worldwide. And the whole thing doesn't pay off for the organizer unless you can scale hugely. If you can solve those questions, I'm all ears. I and the company I work for does PostgreSQL and other training, so I know what the economics look like. > From the web page at http://techdocs.postgresql.org/companies.php , that > company appears to be a small company in Austria, and the company and > certification appear to be recognised by PostgreSQL.org . > > Is that the only PostgreSQL certification that is recognised?

It's the only certification that managed to get a link on www.postgresql.org. :-) ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
