Recently, researchers have begun to relax the criteria for classifying professional occupations, insisting only that the occupation be skill- or education-based (Benveniste, 1987; Ibarra, 1999).”

Professionalism: A Review of Its Impact on the Health Services Robert L. Rhodes, B.A., C.O. Orthotics and Prosthetics, Volume 38, No. 4, pgs. 69-74. Flexner (1915, p. 576) was the first to attempt to delineate the basic characteristics unique to a profession. They are as follows: ” … professional activity was basically intellectual, carrying with it great personal responsibility; it was learned, being based on great knowledge and not merely routine; it was practical, rather than academic or theoretic; its technique could be taught, this being the basis of professional education; it was strongly organized internally; and it was motivated by altruism, the professionals viewing themselves as working for some aspect of the good of society.”
