Being certified is not the same as being licensed. Licensing is a government-controlled process that serves as a requirement for functioning in specific professions. Certification on the other hand, is a voluntary credentialing process which is generally managed by members of the profession. Industry-based certification might sometimes be accepted and encouraged by hospitals and payers because it provides a set of high standards consistently maintained which ultimately benefit the public when developed and managed appropriately.
