Iām STEC certified
01 Sep 2025
I've been involved in software testing for a while now. I have both ISTQB and Certified Agile Tester training certificates. I've also had the honour of creating the course concept and a significant portion of the training for a boot camp and Software Testing apprenticeship at Level 4. However, I must say that the STEC is by far the most comprehensive and well-rounded training available for any new or aspiring tester available anywhere in the world. And thanks to the MoTaverse for allowing me to get the certificate
