Default Typing certificate needed.

I need to show a prospective employer various academic and professional qualifications etc.

One that is required is a certificate stating I can type 25 words per minute, over a 3 minute period.

I have completed lots of IT courses over the years etc, but none of my certificates (UK) state this and I am starting to draw a blank.

Has anybody got any suggestions (egg timer and digi camera).

I am Calgary based and would appreciate some guidance, thanks.

A typing course? Timed test with the employer? A different job?

Could you "sign up"with a temping agency at all? They always make you do a typing test! Might be able to get hold of the paperwork afterwards perhaps?
