THE TRUE VALUE OF
CERTIFICATIONS AND
QUALIFICATIONS
Certifications and qualifications…
attract a certain level of kudos, yet
what do they mean and what sets
them apart?
Certifications
Certifications prove that an individual has
completed the learning process and achieved the
stated objectives.
Meaning that the strength of a professional
certification is based on a fundamental trust
that the individual who receives a credential (the
certification) has proven he or she possesses
the required experience, knowledge or skills of a
profession or practice.
This credibility is paramount for the credential to
maintain value for individual stakeholders,
the profession and the public. Developing a

reputable certification program requires expertise
in several areas. Whether the program sponsor is a
private or public entity, in-depth knowledge of the
industry and job tasks, educational requirements
and eligibility requirements, assessments and
maintenance are a few aspects that must be
included in the program development plan.
Certifications can provide a post nominal title and
the use of official certification material such as a
brand logo to help prove your certification.
Certifications are unique; they show a
commitment to life-long learning as re-
certification is usually required approximately
three years after each new certification. â—Š
