...at the very end of this never-ending article - once there was a great idea called CeLS (Certified by Professionals / beCertified!) - it started around June 2014 as an initiative for free certifications (performed by other professionals, with a recruitment company behind it), but it was suspended on September 15 2018 (probably due to the fact that the recruitment company was acquired by another - bigger recruitment company; but that's only an educated guess).
