Abstraction . Teaching as a profession


In the words “Professional manner,” “gawang propesyonal,”
“professional fee for expert services rendered” the world “professional”
implies one who possesses skill and competence/expertise. “highly
professional” “unprofessional… to act that way” imply a code of ethics
by which a professional person abide. In short, a professional is one
who conforms to the technical or ethical standards of a profession. So
two elements of a profession are competence and a Code of Ethics.

The other elements of a profession are:

1. Initial Professional Education – Professional generally begin their


professional lives by completing a university program in their
chosen fields – teacher education, engineering, nursing,
accountancy. This means long and arduous years of
preparation. Take note this is just initial, which means only the
beginning because a professional is expected to learn endlessly.
2. Accreditation – University programs are approved by a
regulatory body like the commission on higher Education
(CHED) in the Philippines to ensure that graduates from these
recognized programs start their professional lives with
competence.
3. Licensing – Licensing is mandatory, not voluntary and is
administered by a government authority. In the Philippines, this
government authority is the Professional Regulation Commission
(PRC).
4. Professional Development
This is an ongoing professional education that maintains or
improves professionals’ knowledge and skills after they begin
professional practice. In the Philippines this is Continuing
Professional Development mandated by RA 10912, otherwise
known as the CPD Act of 2016

5. Professional societies
Professional see themselves as part of a community of like-
minded individuals who put their professional standards above
the individual self-interest or their employer’s self-interest. These
professional societies put dedication to the public interest and
commitment to moral and ethical values. Professional societies
define certification criteria, manage certification programs,
establish accreditation action for violations of that code.
6. Code of Ethics
Each profession has a code of ethics to ensure that its
practitioners behave responsibility. The code state what
professionals should do. Professional can be ejected from their
professional societies or lose their licenses to practice for
violating the code of ethics. (McConnell. Steve, Source:
http://www.alexsbrown.com/prof9.html, Retrieved 6-3-18)
The teaching profession is governed by the code of ethics for
Professional teachers. Violation of the code of Ethics for
professional teachers is one of the grounds for the revocation of
the professional teacher’s Certificate of Registration and
suspension from the practice of the teaching profession
(Sec.23., RA. 7836).
