NobleProg has official OMG OCEB 2 and OCUP 2 Content Developer status, which means that our course outlines and training materials were developed by the same experts who prepared questions for both certifications. 

Two people from NobleProg team take an active part in the work of OMG, which deals with determining the subjects of OCEB 2 and OCUP 2 examinations and creating test questions.
