This seems reasonable for the certification part. But these community colleges do not usually provide any certificates to the students. Their purpose is to help people who want improve their skills in various areas (computing, languages, hobbies), not to provide any formal recognition. There are some exceptions but mostly people attend these courses just for fun and not for professional skills. My question was more about whether those who organise these courses need to be certified before we can list their courses in local LibreOffice event calendars etc. I'm definitely for requiring such certification from professional IT training companies. But community colleges seem to fall into complete different category and I have no idea on what to do with them.
