I don’t know if anyone besides me noticed but the Adobe Captivate Specialist Certification is now called the Adobe Captivate Professional Certification. I’m curious if people think that has more or less meaning than it had before.
For those who are familiar with the certification, I’m sure it won’t make any difference. For others looking at the cert on a profile (prospective employers), I can see that “professional” might carry a bit more general weight, whereas “specialist” might make them wonder how relevant that particular “specialty” is to their needs.
What is in a name? It is really an overview training for newbies. Semantically professional is less confusing than ‘specialist’ but what is the meaning of ‘professional’? Just marketing stuff… The only way to become a real professional is by developing, solving problems etc…
