(This idea was suggested by @Cowpipe)
As most of you are aware, most of us are very knowledgeable in computer science (i.e. @Cowpipe, @Fantasy, @TwinHeadedEagle, @Jack, @NullPointerException, @MrXidus, @Malware1, @MalwareHunter, @kram7750). I am, too, a volunteer malware removal expert. Unfortunately, I cannot prove that because I've lost my certificate. I want to re-learn Malware-removal, because it's simply fascinating, just like all the aspects of computer science.
But MT doesn't offer any malware training courses. I fancy programmers will also extend their coverage and knowledge after having completed a malware-removal course. I don't just want to register a forum like GeekstoGo to re-learn and re-examine an old knowledge. Of course, if I don't have any option and I've leisure, I'll register on a forum like GeekstoGo and become re-active over forums like tomshardware. But that seems tiresome, and I'll need to go a "training" of one week, just to prove that I am a computer scientist and I want another certificate.
Although it's true the same is true for MalwareTips, I'll at least not need to register on other forums. Not to mention those forum softwares are ugly. While GeekstoGo and BleepingComputer use IPB, they aren't good looking and user-friendly as XenForo. I cannot read code in all PHPBB format.
Some of you are already certified, therefore you can offer training in your leisure time. One reply a day doesn't take huge time, but I understand. I am not vocalizing you immediately need to create a sub-forum and offer training, you should rather create a poll in the Announcements section and ask the opinions of users. But I do support the idea of having a malware-removal course.
Some questions, like what type of certificate I will receive, and its validity, are of course a point of discussion, but are irrelevant (just for now) , because that'd be too much to talk about right now.
Edit : Did I seriously tag myself?
