A Certified SandwichMaker is• A professional in sandwich making• He knows exactly how to make the best
sandwiches• He knows how to make a sandwich that
you find delicious• He has a lot of practical experience

Looking for the right words
If NOT “certified” then …• maybe ‘Licensed’• maybe ‘Trained’• maybe ‘He who obtained the training’• .. who attended the two-day class taught by one
of Scrum trainers…
Does it really matter as long as we understand the meaning correctly?
