Professional certification is a process in which a person proves that he or she has the knowledge, experience, and skills to perform a specific job. The proof comes in the form of a certificate earned by passing an exam that is accredited by an organization or association that monitors and upholds prescribed standards for the particular industry involved. In other words, I just finished jumping through all the hoops again for another year, I guess I am certified to go teach now. Yes, sirree, a bonafide, certified, professional. Yip! :)
