The person behind CandiCerts
Maher Houri, founder of CandiCerts
I built CandiCerts for busy professionals preparing for certification exams. Below is why, and the credentials I bring to it.
Why CandiCerts exists
I have worked in IT service delivery in Qatar for more than ten years, and in 2026 I earned the PMP and ITIL Foundation (Version 5) certifications.
CandiCerts is for busy professionals who have to fit exam preparation around a full working week. I built it around what I believe helps most: exam-style practice with clear explanations of why the right answer is right and why each of the others is wrong. Every track starts with a diagnostic that shows where to begin, then a study plan, practice with explanations, and a mock exam when you are close.
CandiCerts is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by PMI, CompTIA, ISC2, PeopleCert, AWS, Microsoft or ISACA. Every question is original CandiCerts material written to the published exam objectives, never real exam questions. Nobody can honestly promise you a pass, so I don't: CandiCerts shows you where you stand and what to study next, and the result on exam day is yours.
