I just poked around the Tekmetrics web site, and it looks pretty good.
If anyone is interested in creating FreeBSD certifications, as a
programmer, system administrator, or security administrator, working
with Tekmetrics to make FreeBSD-specific versions of their generic
UNIX exams would be a good starting point.

Try out the Dilbert "fun exam" for a sample of what their test 
procedures look like.
