Character and Fitness Evaluation

Character and Fitness Evaluation is a process used by professional licensing or certification authorities to assess whether an individual demonstrates the integrity, honesty, and overall suitability to practice their profession. It involves reviewing an applicant's background, including their personal conduct, ethical behavior, criminal history, and professional history, to ensure they meet standards of good character and responsibility. The goal is to ensure that only individuals who exhibit trustworthy and ethical behavior are granted the license or certification, protecting public interests and maintaining the profession’s integrity.
