professionalization

/pɹəfˌɛʃənəlᵻzˈeɪʃən/ noun

The act or process of professionalizing, or becoming professional.

Word Origin From Latin profiteri 'to declare publicly' — a professional originally was someone who made a public declaration of their skill. The root fateri 'to confess' is from PIE *bha- 'to speak,' which also gives us fame, fate, and infant (literally 'not speaking'). Professionalization is the process of turning something into a publicly declared profession. The breakdown profession+al+iz+ation shows the layers: from profess to profession to professional to professionalize to professionalization.
