Advance Your Career: Make Every Home Better
A certificate shows that an individual has completed training and passed a knowledge-based exam to demonstrate understanding of the material. A certification, on the other hand, is aligned to a recognized standard and includes a proctored exam, which provides stronger verification that the person meets a defined level of competence and can perform to that standard. Certifications must also be renewed periodically to ensure individuals remain current with evolving industry standards and practices.
