No. The Certificate of Completion is a training certificate: it shows that one person completed ISO 22000 Food Safety Awareness Training and reached the pass mark in its final exam. It is not certification of an organisation to ISO 22000, and Sterling does not certify organisations. An organisation is certified by an independent certification body after that body's own audit.
