The word "certification" originates from the Latin word "certiō", meaning "sure" or "certain." It was later adopted into English as "certify," meaning "to make certain." The suffix "-ation" signifies an act or process. Thus, "certification" describes the act of making something certain or official, often through a document or process verifying a particular skill or standard. The word's evolution reflects its core meaning: to instill confidence and assurance.
