I could argue that certifications are the opposite of the socialist creed, "from each according to his ability", but there are others who see "all workers are equal" as the ultimate in either socialism (garbage men and professors of equal value) or capitalism (laborers disposable).

Capitalism was a term coined by Marx, intentionally loaded with a pejorative connotation. Equating capitalism with "Laborers Disposable" is inherently ideological. Free enterprise calls for rational actors, not stereotypical villains, and treating your workers poorly is often non-competitive.
