Two Certificates, One License — Not the Same Career Outcomes

"Why assessment design, support and recognition change your job ceiling even when the licence category matches."

Two Certificates, One License — Not the Same Career Outcomes

Saboteur Assumption

“Licence category equals career outcome.” Employers hire on demonstrable capability and recent, authenticated evidence — not paper alone.

Architect Evidence

  • Hiring signals: portfolio artefacts, feedback trail, and provider reputation.
  • Management pathways: electives + demonstrable competencies matter.
  • Time to productivity: strong assessment design shortens onboarding.

Bard Narrative

Two graduates enter the same role. The one with authentic, recent artefacts becomes the team trainer within months; the other stalls at basic admin.

Action Plan

  1. Choose providers with robust assessment integrity. 2) Build a job‑ready portfolio as you study. 3) Target electives that map to leadership.
