Referring to the operation of the present invention having the configuration as described above in detail.

First of all, it is necessary to ask the experts in the relevant field among the pre-examined certification and questionnaire members to regularly or frequently question the 'examination bank question with difficulty'. In such a state, when receiving the examination bank question sent from the questionnaire, the difficulty of the received examination bank problem is checked, and if the difficulty level of the problem is indicated, it is sent to the certified member in advance. Ask for an e-mail to review errors and errors. If the difficulty is not indicated, ask the member to record the difficulty again and go through the authentication process of the banking problem with the difficulty recorded. After the reviewer's opinion is received, the member's opinion on the suitability of the examination bank question is checked and stored in the question bank if the examination bank problem is appropriate, and if the problem is found to be inappropriate, the question is corrected. And request a resubmission.

Through the above process, the question bank D / B 22 is established as a basis for questioning the examination questions for qualification.

As described above, according to the present invention in the state where the question bank D / B to construct the examination question is constructed, the examination guide and the examination procedure of the examinee can be processed according to the operation of the certification test management unit 16. As follows.

First, prior to conducting the qualification test (for example, 30 days in advance), announce the examination of the examination through the Internet. When the candidate takes the notice through a computer with an image camera and applies for the examination, he / she checks the details of the application, and if there is any deficiency such as the contents of the examination or the non-payment of the examination fee, the candidate is given an "e-mail address." Please fill out the "Completion" or "Pay the examination fee" message, and if there are no deficiencies, scan the candidate's picture sent from the video camera and store it in the examinee's information D / B (21). A candidate number will be assigned to the candidate. In order to avoid any problems with the examination, the mock examination problem is sent to the e-mail in advance. If the candidate solves the problem and sends it, the mock examination result is scored and retransmitted, and the test schedule is guided at the same time.

As described above, according to the present invention in the state in which the test procedure of the examinee who wants to see the certification test is processed, the certification test can be carried out and the test result can be processed according to the operation of the certification test management unit 16 and the test supervisory unit 17. Looking at one embodiment, it is as follows.

In other words, after confirming the examinee's number and face of the examinee who took the test through the Internet on the test day, the test questions are made by using random statistical techniques from the question bank, and the test is conducted through the Internet while taking the test scene transmitted from the image camera. Examine the examinees to prevent cheating. When the test is completed at the appointed time, the test results are scored immediately, and statistical data for each candidate and subject are stored and the results are saved. Successful applicants will be announced via the Internet. A successful photo certificate will be sent to the applicant. In addition, the e-mail transmission service guides the statistical processing results and receives the service application for the statistical processing results. Based on this, the statistical processing results are sent to each applicant by e-mail. In this case, the statistical analysis of the scores of each subject area and the difficulty level is performed in order to prepare for the next qualification exam for the successful candidates (for example, for the first exam for the second-level candidates) and for the next challenge for the failed candidates. Send the result by e-mail.

For reference, in the credential authentication system according to the present invention, a security system 13 which is a defense wall which prevents unauthorized leakage of examinee information, examination bank problems of the question bank and credential authentication information from the credential authentication server 14 is constructed. It is also possible to prevent information leakage from hackers in advance.

The present invention described above is not limited to the above-described embodiments and the accompanying drawings, and various substitutions, conversions, and modifications are possible within the scope without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be evident to those who have knowledge.
