This Study aims to present the guidelines for the activation of the domestic GS certification market through the assessment of the characteristics of the demands of the domestic SW companies pursuing to acquire GS certification. As the results of the factor analysis of the guidelines for the activation of the domestic GS certification market, (1) strictness of the certification standards, (2) level of satisfaction on the certification services and (3) certification effects were deduced as the specific variables. This study is highly significant in that the fact that the certification market is more effectively activated when the 3 factors, namely, strictness of the certification standards, level of satisfaction on the certification services and certification effects, have been intensively reinforced although there exist countless number of specific variables including certification system, certification cost, certification expertise and certification marketing, etc. in order to activate GS certification market has been statistically verified.

The government adopts mainly three venture-supporting systems such as Venture Certification, InnoBiz Certification, and MainBiz Certification. This study compares the policy effects of productive aspects and technical inefficiency aspects of Venture Certification and InnoBiz Certification using the data on 'The 2010 Actual Conditions of Venture Enterprise.' With the estimation of production functions, it is found that only 'financing and ease of investment' produces a statistically significant effects on productivity. On the other hands, the other effects of 'the venture certification' do not produce positive effects. However, it is revealed that 'the venture certification policy' primarily reduces technical inefficiencies. The InnoBiz certification policy shows primarily insignificant effects in both sides of the production aspects and technical inefficiency aspects. However, the 'marketing ability effect' produces a positive effect on production and reduces the technical inefficiencies as well.

This study analyze the effect on wage, labor mobility by using Craft II Class certification out of National skill certification. In this article, we used the parametric and nonparametric method. In the former we used IV that the fraction of certification by occupation by firm scale to solve the selection problem. In the latter, it's used matching method and kernel regression. The paper shows that certification effect on wage has about 5.1~9.9%. The result of analysis between certification and labor mobility indicates better certification effects on long term tenure to the same firm than certification effects on wage from labor mobility. Also, we knew that the employee which have no certification relative is difficult to be established in the same workplace.

Most of all countries have a governmental system for regulating the certification of nursing. In Korea, certification of advanced practice nurse(APN) is statuary regulation under supervision of government. In this article, the writers discuss the legal characters and effects of certification and regulatory body for certification and suggest the new regulatory system. The advanced practitioner may be recognize "new" health provider in the future. The nursing specialist have right to use title and practice expanded role. It's different things with physicians certification. The regulatory body is important because certification protected the title and empower APN authorize of expanded role. The certification of nursing is closely connected with public interest. The Korea government delegate power of national examination to private institute. To improve utility and publicity of certification system, we suggest that statutory empower the certification authority to public institute which composed with nursing professionals.

As a sign of international quality system, ISO9000 certification has been adopted by more and more enterprises. In recent five years, there have been 560,000 certified companies in Europe and America, and there have been more than 390,000 ones in China. It has being attracted many quality scholars' attentions whether ISO9000 certification can bring more benefits to certified companies or not. This paper investigates the ISO9000 certification effect on market performance by the samples from Chinese list companies in shanghai stock exchange. Considering ISO9000 certification as an event, a certification effect model will be set up by means of the event study method, which takes abnormal return rate as a basic indicator to measure the ISO9000 certification effect on Chinese market performance in different event times. Investigation results show that the Chinese certified companies have some positive effects on market performance in the short term. From a long standpoint, the relation between certification and performance has a positive trend.

Since 2017, South Korea has been the first country in the world to implement a national certification system for Zero Energy Buildings (ZEB). This system aims to maximize the energy efficiency of buildings to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and reduce energy consumption in the building sector using renewable energy. To achieve this goal, the ZEB certification system classifies green buildings into five grades based on the energy independence rate. However, the current ZEB certification system based on the energy independence rate is only considered a requirement for building completion, losing its original intent. This study aims to highlight the problems and limitations of the ZEB certification system based on the energy independence rate and to propose an operational plan for the system that can genuinely reduce energy consumption in the building sector. For this, the actual energy consumption and the renewable energy production referenced during the certification of 10 ZEB-certified buildings were quantified and compared with the energy independence rate. The total energy consumption, energy production, life cycle cost, performance coefficient of equipment, and other key indicators were analyzed to evaluate the actual effects of ZEB certification on energy savings. As a result, the simple energy independence rate-based ZEB certification was judged to be inconsistent with the original intent of the system. The ZEB certification system needs to be re-established to reflect the design of systems that can activate and utilize energy savings and renewable energy usage in buildings. Additionally, improvements in the management and inspection systems are necessary to determine how much they contribute to actual reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption post-certification.

This study was to identify the effect of the satisfaction of certification, the educational use of the company offering certificate, the system of confirmation of the same model and the demographic aspect on the companies to see if compulsory certification(KC certificate) has negative effects on company management. First, the satisfaction of certification could reflect positive influences on company management. Second, there is no statistical significance in the education from the company offering certificate as a result of analyzing relationships but education is required and has an effect on improving quality according to the result of frequency analysis. Last, the system to declare by identifying the same model has a difference in significance in sales account, the development of products and warranty service for products.
