count towards your educational requirements. Copy/paste and link from the Course Catalog if you can find it!

example, imagine someone applies to a stock assessment (ZP-0482-3) Fish Biologist position in Seattle and makes the "cert", but they are not the top choice for the stock assessment position. A hiring manager with a position with the same grade (ZP-0482-3)
and location (Seattle) is able to request to see the stock assessment "cert". If they see that the candidate might be a good fit for an ecosystem modeling (ZP-0482-3) Fish Biologist position in Seattle, they can invite them for an interview. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
