Indústria
Onde a indústria aprende
Toda empresa do catálogo da indústria que existe para ensinar, certificar ou credenciar, retirada da linha do tempo e agrupada pelo que é: um centro que vende o currículo de um fabricante, um órgão que certifica uma pessoa, uma plataforma que vende uma biblioteca, uma escola que concede um diploma. A distinção importa porque os próprios verbetes não param de traçá-la.
