Certificate vs. Certification: What's the Difference? While these terms are often used interchangeably, they actually mean very different things—and understanding the distinction can help you stand out in your field! ?? Certificate: Think of this as the completion of a course or program. You’ve gained knowledge, passed the tests, and walked away with a piece of paper proving you did it. ?? It's usually a one-time achievement, focusing on educational training. ?? Certification: This is the gold standard in many professions. It’s not just about completing a course—it’s a process that involves meeting rigorous standards, passing exams, and maintaining your credential through ongoing education. It shows your commitment to expertise, quality, and staying up-to-date in your field. ? Bottom line: Certificates show you learned something. Certifications show you’ve mastered it, are applying it, and continue to uphold those standards. #CertifiedElderLawAttorney #CELA #NELF #CertificationMatters
