2008 on National Education Standards, stated that the standard of teachers and education are prajabatan and eligibility criteria for the physical and mental health, and education in the office. And in Chapter VI: Teachers and Education Personnel Standards Part Educator, Article 28 stated:

(1) Educators must have academic qualifications and competencies as agents of learning, physical and spiritual health, as well as having the ability to achieve national education goals.

(2) academic qualifications referred to in paragraph (1) is the level of education that must be met by an educator as evidenced by a diploma and / or certificate of appropriate expertise relevant statutory provisions in force.

(5) academic qualifications and competence as a learning agent referred to in paragraph (1) through (4) developed by BSNP and determined by the Minister.

So to be able to say as professional teachers, according to the National Education Standards, an educator must have four main requirements, namely:

1. Have academic qualifications

2. Competent

3. Certified educators

4. Become agents of learning in order to achieve national education goals.

Then, teachers are required to have four competencies, namely pedagogical (teacher in the learning management capabilities), personal competence (the ability of teachers in shaping his personality), social competence (the ability of teachers as part of the Community), and professional competency (the ability to master science teacher science, technology, and / or arts and culture diampunya), thus becoming professionals, which in turn not only improve the quality of learning, it can even improve welfare in the life of the educator. And certification is a form of respect for the government to increase the quality of teacher qualification and competence. Since educators who pass the certification test will obtain rights in accordance with his position, in other words, the certification is closely related to an increase in welfare of teachers as a recognized profession.
