Furthemore, teacher certification is also an effort of the government to improve the quality of teachers along with improving teacher welfare. Many teachers considered and complained that the certification process was not transparent. Assumed that there are unclear procedures in the selection process. As for those who stated that there were certification candidate participants who did not meet the specified criteria but they were able to take part in the teacher certification selection proces.
