 Another important topic is credentialing issues. This is very important that to whom we are going to give credit for the training and expertise and to whom we are not and what type of the credentials we are going to assign to the different people. Credentials exist as a tangible indicator of accomplishment given in a certain field with a purpose to the mayor, the competence of the holder. So, its different levels can be different in psychology. There are at least three levels of credentials which are being distinguished by their intrinsic characteristics and the data on which they are being awarded. So, we are going to see one by one what they are. First of all, we are going to talk about primarily credentials. So, primarily credentials are those who are earned over time by direct contact with trained instructor like one-to-one interaction with whom these credentials are given. Like someone who is a mid-carrier person in psychology and who is taking training from a very high-profile instructor and when his training is complete he will be going to give a credential certificate which would be called primarily credential certificate. They are based on longitudinal samples of the practitioner's behavior. It is not just one or two days of training. After a very long time of practice, it is decided that one individual will be given this credential and with person-to-person supervision and direct observation by senior colleagues. For example, in the back institute of repression the trainees go from different countries of the world and after taking a long-term training and therapy they are certified. So, they have a primary credential which comes with it. For example, coursework, graduating training programs or internship can be affiliated with any institution, it can be affiliated with any international center and the outcome may result in the form of any transcript like a result card, a post-doc degree, a transcript and a certificate of completion. Apart from this, different foreign supervisors' laboratory letters can also be included in this. Then comes secondary credentials. Secondary credentials not only use primarily credentials as prerequisite but also incorporate other elements in determining qualification. So, your primary thing will be with you but a secondary which will be associated with it will distinguish it from the primary source. Secondary credentials include the licensing and certifications as well as recognition by a reputable specialized certifications board. Like a primary certificate complete, you get more advanced certificates and different international bodies are authorized for their licensing and credentials. So, after your primary, you get a secondary level of credentials. Then tertiary credentials. So, after talking about the primary and secondary credentials, the third one are tertiary credentials and they are based solely on the evidence that both the primary and secondary credentials have been obtained. In a sense, this simply attests to the fact that the professional who is going to hold a primary and secondary credential, he would be the only one who is going to get the tertiary credentials. Membership in certain professional organizations such as APA divisions in Pakistan, we can talk about PPA specifically, then we talk about PAC specifically, then state or local professional associations are listing in national register of health services providers in psychology. It can also include many other international organizations such as ICP International Council for Psychologists and British Council for Psychologists or many others. So, we clearly understand that to be a part of them, it is very important that first you have a primary degree in psychology, psychotherapy and you are practicing in it and you have included that primary certificate. Then you have a supervised training and you have a secondary certificate and after that you would be eligible that you are having all those competent degrees, all those competent license and certificates that you are eligible enough to get recognition by these international bodies by becoming their affiliate member, by becoming their life members and so on and so forth. So, this is how all three type of credentials are being discussed in ethical practice.
