You agree with the article, then articulate the methods used to force the activities of the article?

Certifications (which I have several) do not guarantee professionalism, nor do they guarantee competence etc?

The greatest guarantee of competence is the employers ability to dismiss.

If you are dismissed wrongly, new work will find you, or versa vice, if you were dismissed for a reason, you can choose to improve or not.

The free market operation of IT is how it gains the most potency, by constantly growing, achieving, expanding etc.

What certification would you request of Mark Zuckerberg, or Sergei? How about Steve Jobs? Bill Gates?

Stability and innovation are truly the yin and the yang of IT. There must be balance, forcing a traditional structure reserved for the most formal examples merely imposes their overhead, without any true benefit.
