While becoming MBTI qualified is a required first step to administering the Indicator, many practitioners wish to seek the designation of Certified MBTI Practitioner, which allows them to have their ongoing training and professional experience certified. This special designation is often helpful to those who wish to promote their expertise and knowledge in the business and educational fields.

Certified Practitioners are held to higher standards that include additional education and practical experience. This designation offers the general public a mechanism by which they can better distinguish the skill level of the practitioner. One must first become a Qualified Practitioner with at least one year of experience in the ethical use of the MBTI instrument before being eligible to become a Certified Practitioner.
