WORKING SESSION IDENTIFICATION
Short Work Session Description	This session aims to establish the model by which an certification/exam based on OWASP materials could be created. The topics of discussion will include: What is a workable/acceptable certification model for OWASP's Community? What types of certification should there be? What would a CC-licensed certification exam look like (as executed by others)? Since OWASP is not interested or able to administer certifications itself who could run/administer such CC certifications/exams? What should OWASP's official position be on entities that provide OWASP based certifications?
