I still have no idea why the concept of a professionalization program causes
so much ire. You go into an interview armed with your very good,
well-written and targeted resume as well as an outstanding portfolio and use
your winning personality to...not get the job. Why? Millions of reasons.

Can professionalization hurt those who might undertake it? No. Can it hurt
those who don't undertake it? Maybe; depends upon how employers perceive and
receive the program. If having a certification helped me obtain work from
employers who specifically advertise for those holding professionalization,
then I'd go for it.
