Doctors and lawyers specializes. Are you going to have specialized non gameable certifications for all the different facets of software development?

Doctors also go to school for 8 years and then do residencies. Lawyers go to school for 7. Are you proposing that?

I'm just pointing out that certifications don't have to be meaningless. If somebody wants to use the title "Software Engineer", then perhaps we should require them to be actual professional licensed engineers.
