    Review Resolution Certification System Deficiency (CSD)
    Review Conclusion The PR says the requirement is in the Exam Supervision Guidelines.
    However, the requirement is in Document X094, the Training Course
    Accreditation Requirements, Section 6.1 which states:

    "The supervisor appointed by the ATTC Provider shall in all cases have
    no conflict of interest or role that would compromise their ability to
    ensure fair and independent testing of all Candidates on a course.

    The supervisor shall not have acted as the trainer of the Candidates
    that are being examined."

    It is agreed that this is a certification system deficiency and that the
    following change should be made to the program documentation:

    Change from:

    "The supervisor appointed by the ATTC Provider shall in all cases have
    no conflict of interest or role that would compromise their ability to
    ensure fair and independent testing of all Candidates on a course.

    The supervisor shall not have acted as the trainer of the Candidates
    that are being examined."

    To:

    "The supervisor appointed by the ATTC Provider shall in all cases ensure
    fair and objective testing of all Candidates on a course."

    And in the Exam Supervision Guidelines, insert into Section 1.7

    "All Proctors should complete and return a TOGAF 9 Examination Proctor
    Agreement. Instructions for its completion are included on the first
    page of the agreement. Counter-signature by The Open Group and return is
    required before proceeding to the next steps."
