OpenOffice certification clearance involves a process based on evidences and experience using a system of guidelines crafted against recognized standards authorities for IT education. It also involved some strategies such as constructivism, sideways communication and feedback system that enable the dynamics of the activities to have potential to develop a solid skill set in the use of office technology.
The scope of this project is to create a common certification program for OpenOffice.org. The object is to certify support companies (professional educators, owners of education centers, certification organizations, etc.), not

users nor programmers directly, at least in the first steps.
