Interpretation of Results

The section with the highest score indicates the certification level most applicable to your work. Similar scores in multiple sections indicate that you are working in more than one level. Normally, candidates will choose to pursue the more challenging level for certification when this occurs.

A high score in the Mechanic section suggests that your job requires "Hands On" or skills type work. A high score here suggests that you seriously consider Mechanic certification, even if you also consider certification at other levels, such as Technician. Most Specialist level positions are easily identified by their requirement to design systems and specify components for a given application. Engineers tend to fall into well-defined roles, largely due to the fact that formal engineering training is available and generally expected of individuals in engineering level positions. These cases are generally obvious
