Juan Paolo Arao Receives ISO 30414 Certification, Named Engagement Agency Affiliate in Middle East

An executive who provides advisory services in a broad area of human capital management services has received an ISO 30414 certification and will support the Enterprise Engagement Alliance’s advisory practices in the Middle East and the Philippines. 

 

By virtue of his passing the required examination for ISO 30414 conducted by HR Metrics, a qualified educator and certifier in ISO 30414 standards, Juan Paolo Arao has been awarded an ISO 30414 certification from the International Center for Enterprise Engagement at TheICEE.org. 

 

Launched and managed by some of the founders of the ISO 30414 standard, ICEE independently verifies and certifies the qualifications, examination results, and the certification companies used; provides a logo, content marketing support, and specific tools practitioners can use to provide value to clients and their organizations. These include processes for gap analyses, human capital reporting strategies and metrics; reporting, and analysis of human capital reports and management practices for investors and mergers and acquisitions firms, as well as auditing of reports.

 

Arao received his ISO 30414 training from and passed the examination at HR Metrics, a human capital analytics advisory and education firm in Pakistan founded by Zahid Mubarik, who helped create the ISO 30414 standard. HR Metrics is considered qualified by ICEE to provide education and testing for individuals on ISO standards based on the qualifications of Mubarik and his examination conducted by Dr. Ron McKinley, another practitioner on the ISO working group which developed and publishes the standard.  

 

ICEE deliberately does not provide education on standards, but rather focuses on verifying the credibility of the exam provider and the minimum five years of management experience required to display an ICEE 30414 logo. ICEE’s primary focus is to provide practitioners with specific evaluation, strategic planning, and other tools that bring value to their customers or employers.
