Professional Certification Programs
Becoming certified is a badge of excellence to be displayed for all to see.

|
Certification provides confirmation that a person meets certain criteria of knowledge and problem-solving ability. Certification can be beneficial on multiple levels.
- For the certified professional, it provides credibility in the industry; it demonstrates knowledge, experience and competency. It typically creates increased opportunities for career advancement and increased earnings.
- For the employer, it can result in increased safety, higher product yield, and increased customer and employee confidence that produces dedication and improved teamwork.
- For the certifying organization, it provides standard practices that create discipline within the industry, it provides awareness and advances in technology, and it can provide increased cooperation between organizations.
Clearly one form of professional development is the improved job performance through the increased confidence that comes with "knowing what you know."
