Individual recognition schemes in hydrography

Individual recognition schemes assess a professional against the necessary competencies for a particular profession and award the successful candidate with a certification. The professionals keep their certifications as long as they meet the requirements. In 2018, the German Hydrographic Society (DHyG) prepared a questionnaire in order to conduct a survey on the need of individual recognition schemes in Germany and Europe. This article discusses the most important results of the study.
