Listers,

Are we seriously having this discussion, please leave certification to institutes of education such as Universities who already issue degrees in computer science and the like.

This is just another tax guzzling scheme like the Konza adverts being run on TV yet the AG has already scuttled the project, 

We are aware that all the great software applications developed over the past 3 decades have been done by enthusiasts or as Philip Ochieng recently clarified amateurs, a situation that is not about to change any time soon.

KICT eat in peace.

Regards

PS.  Liko lets go look for something more productive to do with our time, wachana na mambo ya certification na business plans.
