The certificate

Sample certificate

  • *RTI Wiki — Certified PIO / FAA — RTI Act, 2005 Awarded to [Your Full Name] for successfully completing the 12-module PIO / FAA Continuing Professional Development programme on the Right to Information Act, 2005 (as amended to the DPDP Act, 2023). Score: [XX]% · CPD hours claimed: 30 Certificate ID: RTW-CPD-2026-NNNN Date: [DD Month YYYY] Verify: righttoinformation.wiki/cpd/verify/RTW-CPD-2026-NNNN (Digitally signed by Shrawan Pathak, Instructor · RTI Wiki) </WRAP> A real PDF sample is sent on enrolment. ===== What the certificate is NOT ===== * Not a statutory qualification. There is no Indian statute that issues or accredits RTI-specific CPD certificates — this is the case for all third-party CPD in this field. * Not a licence. Holding the certificate does not authorise any professional function that is otherwise regulated. * Not a substitute for your organisation's internal training mandate — use it as a supplement. Some training departments (state academies, PSU L&D teams) recognise external CPD certificates on a case-by-case basis. Please confirm with your organisation before claiming hours internally. ===== Verification by third parties ===== If someone (a reviewer, a recruiter, an auditor) wants to verify a certificate: - They visit righttoinformation.wiki/cpd/verify/<ID>. - The page shows the candidate's name, score, date, and “Valid ✓” status. - If the candidate has cheated (we retain assessment logs) or if the certificate is revoked for any reason, the page shows “Revoked” with a date and a short reason. ===== Code of conduct ===== By enrolling, you agree: * Assessments are yours. No collaboration on the final 60-MCQ. The quizzes during modules are open; the final is open-book but solo. * Cite, don't copy. You may paste course materials into your work-product only with attribution to RTI Wiki's CPD programme. * Integrity review. If we detect assessment fraud (multiple rapid attempts, identical answer patterns across accounts), we revoke the certificate and mark the verification URL accordingly. No refund. ===== Grievance and revocation ===== * Grievance officer: [email protected]; response within 5 working days. * Revocation appeal: in writing to the same address; one reconsideration permitted within 30 days. ===== Related ===== * CPD course landing * Full curriculum * Enrol — pricing * About the instructor**
