True, but they are also used by employers to determine the ability to study and
learn, at least long enough to regurgitate it on the test :-). (03)

As far as I know there are no ontologist certifications, but the survey will
make that clear. (05)

I was operating under the assumption that (until otherwise shown) there isn't
any, and that to be successful there has to be a test, and the test has many
questions, and the test results need to be reviewed and accepted by some
certification body, and that doesn't exist. A lot of assumptions, I know. :-) (07)

I think we're on the same track, I'm just being a little more direct. I
assuming (ugh) that at least one of the guidelines will be the administration
of a test, and wondering what those test questions might be. Maybe the
guideline will be more specific, rather than just some test, a test that
includes one or more variations of each of the following questions... (09)
