Of course, I need it – the performance certificate must be issued by the employer!

It’s not required for the basic course exams, but it is necessary for the specialized courses – you need to provide proof of your work experience as well as evidence of your involvement in design work. It’s actually quite simple: one of our team members who applied for a position in construction prepared the necessary documentation on his own, had his supervisor sign it, and then had the official seal added to it.

What was said upstairs is simple: proof of working in design work. If one’s own company doesn’t have the necessary design qualifications, who can issue such proof?

The form requires a stamp from your employer. No certificate is required. It is required when registering for the specialized courses.
