Not trying to beat my drum, just narrating facts

After concluding free online internship for 70+ students from all over the country, I received a phone call from a student, asking me - Sir, What is the validity / authenticity / recognition of the certificate issued by you at the end of the course?, which NONE asked me before!

I said - my dear student, if you are seeking accredited certificate, please remember - It comes at a price and I cannot ill-afford to issue such certificate by paying the accrediting agency from my pocket, without charging back to you. Then I thought, there might be many more who might have not asked the question, but might be pondering with themselves! So, to put to rest all such apprehensions, I reiterate - The type of courses I conduct, has several facets but the technical content and my intent is always of same degree, irrespective of the cost of the course.

Therefore - dear students - I share AGAIN, I am the ONLY ONE in India to impart IADC accredited training courses in " Mud engineering and " Cement slurry design" under DIT category and whether I issue an accredited certificate or a plain certificate of my company "Knnamp enterprise", the knowledge imparted is same! with BIG difference in overall cost. Choice is all yours!!

While it is true that accredited courses help in securing job, but internship is more a practice of gaining knowledge. Nevertheless I am fine with both the types of queries and a NEW class, Internship with accredited certificate at an additional price!. Keep enquiring for all possible types of options please.

Oh yes, Last but not the least - After 40 + years of standing in industry and having imparted hundreds of training courses across the globe, I am wondering, who else should I approach to validate my knowledge in my own domain, when I already have accreditation from international agency, IADC?!

I know couple of other accrediting agencies who allow professionals to use their Logo and charge exorbitantly, but none of these agencies have got anything to do with mud engineering, to the extent I know!! If there is any such agency, please share details.
