His thoughts began to race. In the real world, industry certification typically requires a certain level of professional ability to obtain a title, and then, through practical experience, gradually become a senior.
However, this professional system is quite the opposite, requiring to first reach the ability level of a senior within the industry to be promoted to the corresponding profession.
"It's like boarding a train before buying a ticket," Ron had somewhat figured out the mechanism.
But after being certified by the School, you can sign a formal collaboration agreement, supplying Magic Potions to the School in exchange for corresponding rewards and resources.

"Moreover, becoming a Professional Alchemist can also exempt you from some mundane apprentice duties and guard tasks."
