We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Certification Service",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Safety inspection service launched from
Motion Drives and Controls, which we summarised at the time by saying "Factory-trained staff carry out a complete assessment of the condition of the safety or sliding chuck at the customer's site".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Personnel certification scheme launched from
Sira: "Competence Professional is the only UKAS-accredited certification scheme to assess the competence of individuals working in or associated with hazardous areas".
In April 2007, we covered the news from IML Events
- take a look at Travelling seminar programme updated
which says: "The proceedings of HazardEx In The Regions will cover nonelectrical and electrical requirements, the issues of competency, repair and overhaul, arc flash and effective structuring of the Ex framework".
