Status updates

  • Exam status update
  • Report on operation, # of exam takers, issues, etc.
  • Ongoing ToDo Werner: Provide a statistics report on certification
  • Werner prsented a report on exams that were taken:
  • 71 exam attemps overall. 63 persons have passed the exam.
  • in 2023 the pass rate was very high (97%). Charles mentions that IHE Connectathon monitors may be a very skilled group. Werner reports that quite some monitors failed the exam.
  • The exam was updated three times since the start of the program. So overall statistics is not possible for all questions.
  • The analysis shows that most questions are fine, some need further update.
  • Accreditation of Training Courses
  • New accreditation candidates? none.

Exam and Syllabus

  • Ongoing ToDo Werner: Start the process to revise the exam
  • Chris mentions that there are comments on the exam.
  • Are exam developers identified?
  • Werner reports from discussions with the DIN in Germany, and with ISTQB for software testing. In these communities it was agreed that it is fine to have a group of experts revise the exam, as long as each expert does only sees less that 30% of a possible exam.
  • Werner reports that questions can be generated with an AI. He reports from experience from GASQ, that this is already done in other schemes (ISTQB, two others). The AI can generate a lot of exam questions. These are then reviewed by a group of experts, where each expert sees maximal 30% of a potential exam. The reviewed questions are then used in exams.
  • Mock exams can be generated with this AI, using non-reviewed questions.
  • The AI is specific to the scheme. It is trained with the syllabus, the glossary, with mock exams, and with material that relates to the scheme and the syllabus.
  • Werner presents an example from GASQ.
  • Suggestions is to further thevelop the exam in the EduCom, where each EduCom menber only sees less than 30% of a potential exam.
  • The specific exam development group that now exists, is not longer necessary. This would make exam development much easier.
  • ToDo Werner to provide text on how the exam might be developed in the future, including review processes. AI should be mentioned as one option to generate questions for review.


  • ToDo Stefan/Philipp: Collect feedback on the exam from those who took the course, and ask Werner to extend the invitation to those who took the exam.
  • ToDo Werner: Do a survey on the exam graduates of 2023, on any feedback from their experience.
  • ToDo Chris: Contact Matt Blackman and Lora Bright mentioned that they are interested to join the exam development group
  • ToDo Stefan/Philipp to follow up with Werner and see that they join the exam development group
  • Chris: The Syllabus needs updates as well
