Many licenses require certification training prior to being issued. Hunting, trapping, driver... I've seen all the complaints about "googans" not knowing what they are doing. Even experienced fishermen learn something each time they fish, things that seem like "common sense".
If a license is going to be issued, shouldn't that individual have some training in the "field of knowledge" that the license is being issued for ?
