The three most important aspects of professionalism for a substitute is appearance, commitment to the students, and commitment to the profession. I listed appearance first because first impressions of how you dress are the most important to go with. Not only does dressing help give a first impression, your attitude toward showing that you care for the students and profession give a lot to say about how professional you are. Having commitment to the students mean showing them that you are there for them and their safety, and to show the students their potential as a worthy member of society. Showing your commitment toward your profession means you are investing time in the profession and not making false statements of your related competency
“Gracious Professionalism” to me is to show respect and an uplifting attitude towards everyone even when it is not easy. I believe we can all show respect to others who also respect and agrees with us, but when we show respect and lift up the people who are not respecting or agreeing with us, that is showing “Gracious Professionalism.” For example, when I played basketball for many years I came in contact with many refs, bad team mates, and bad coaches. When these individuals around me would disrespect or try to bring me down I had a choice to do the same back, or show “Gracious Professionalism” by trying to lift them up. Every situation creates a chance to show “Gracious Professionalism”, we just have to create an uplifting and respectful
The first thing that comes to mind in my first 30 days at a new site is that I want to not mainly focus on, but keep in mind of the professionalism standpoint. I want to make sure that I bring that into the mindset, with the willingness to learn and soak as much information as I possibly can. Ask a lot of questions if needed and proceed to move to a professional level. I think in order for me to master my professionalism it will help me to be successful. Some of those steps I'm willing to take is to dress professional which will show my employers or co-workers that I'm ready for the day or the task at hand, looking the part. Make sure im well groomed with ironed attire. The biggest thing for me at the point time and moment is getting my certificate's done and completed.
I accredit, that the level of professionalism I gained this month was beyond outstanding. I manage to learn more then just the basic in this Digital Video and Audio Production class. I know that if this class was a little longer then just a month and twice a week I would have been a pro in that class. I enter that class not knowing anything about cameras or even how to operate one.The magic of learning helped me get through the month. It was beyond my expectations, my submission for this class everything was on time and I attended every single lecture without missing any of them. I think that for this professionalism assignment I should get full credit meaning I deserve the full 10% getting a 100, because I did try my hardest and gave my 100%
Believe it or not a lot of individuals do not know how to become and maintain being professional. This is a perfect to quote "lead by example", be an example for others to learn from you and you could always learn from others. If you are not learning something every day you are wasting your own time. Its always a perfect time to learn and today I learned about professionalism. From a bit of research through internet and a few friends, and also from what I know and have experienced from day to day. A lot of issues I have been through could of been solved by just using some professionalism, for example, thinking before I reacted to certain situations and conversations. Always carry yourself professional and people will think much more highly about you and the way they percieve you.
Professionalism is your character, your personality, your spirit. More so, it is a unique, inspiring, quality to have, which makes you a valuable asset in the work place. If you are professional in the work place, you are on time, neatly dressed, clean and well groomed. You are thorough, accurate, and efficient. You do your job to the best of your ability and your work is complete before leaving for the day.
Avis et al (2010) state that historically, only occupations such as Doctors, Solicitors, the Clergy and Bank Managers were worthy of the title of being called a “Professional”. However they go on to say that this has changed over time to the point whereby much more diverse groups are describing themselves within the category of being professional to the point that the term becomes meaningless. That said, they do agree that a professional should hold a set of specific skills and knowledge that are gained through a certain amount of training and “should be used for the benefit of society”. Teachers, lecturers and trainers clearly fit within this remit. Scales (2008) lists professionalism as one of the traits of an effective teacher. He goes on the say that professionalism is multi-faceted, citing the way teachers behave, look, the way interact with their students, how they talk and how they prepare and plan their work all form what he believes makes a professional.
Professionalism in the workplace, is the absolute key to having a successful, and smoothly run business. Professionalism is something that must be maintained by every individual within the work setting, especially in health care, whether it is the janitor, activity director, nursing assistant, doctor, or even the head administrator. Professionalism encompasses many aspects, such as teamwork, attitude, environment, knowledge, morals, and ethics.
Everywhere you go and in everything you do, professionalism comes in to account in some way or another. Professionalism has been defined as, “a strict adherence to courtesy, honesty and responsibility when dealing with individuals or other companies in the business environment” (Clarke, 2015). When it comes to the career of nursing, professionalism is taken to a whole other level. Not only does professionalism come in to account with your business professionals and peers, but you have patients with whom professionalism is highly practiced as well. Professionalism in nursing means that you are able to handle all the responsibilities given to you in an efficient and proper way. It means that when you are given an order that needs to be carried out by a doctor or a patient who needs your help, you adhere to what is being expected of you in a timely manner. Physicians put trust into nurses in order to carry out orders that are needed to save patients’ lives. If you’re not looked at as professional and responsible, it is going to be very hard to have a successful career. Responsibility is what nursing is all about. Professionalism in nursing means that along with taking on big responsibilities, you have discipline. Discipline in nursing is crucial to being successful. Not only to keep your patients safe, but so that you personally are on the ball and looked at by others as professional, therefore, making you a great nurse. Professionalism means that you have the

Professionalism is the competence expected of an individual to properly execute given tasks. In dance, it is important to introduce respect, organization, and focus as the essentials of a performer. Establishing professional methods in class will assist others in distinguishing your dedication and commitment to the artform. Practicing professionalism in daily performance leads to improved performance in the future because of repetitive conduct during classes. If a dancer consistently puts forth the effort to work hard and focus in class, they are more likely to adopt these concepts into their everyday lifestyle and develop their talent more.

The first element of professionalism involved in this case is clinician-patient relationship. Gerry is probably worried that if he tells Sean of the information that Sean may become upset at him for believing such a thing and could hurt their relationship. It could also hurt his trust for Gerry if it turns out to be false, or if Gerry doesn’t tell him and it turns out to be true and Sean discovers that Gerry knew. The second element of professionalism would be collegial relationships. Gerry will have to grow relationships with other healthcare professionals in order to get more factual information on the issue if allowed or possible. He could also seek advice from team counselors to determine the best way to go about the issue and how to talk
While she had worked for a year, she steadily collected her careers and experiences on her profile and she also took several certificate exams to write on her profile what she got on several parts of exams for her future job interview, application, or resume of company she wants to employ. At this point, people in these days and she tend to be expected to brand themselves under engaging in disciplinary control and this phenomenon could be “personal branding” so their ideal professionalism toward the occupations is not real and they are more likely to accumulate their activities and achievements to display superficially what they have done for the jobs or works they want to employ. According to the article, Professionalism as proxy for business
For most of my life, I was a student who cultivated a certain academic demeanor. After observing various physical therapy settings, the professionalism demonstrated by the practitioners vastly differed from the academic attitude I developed. Professionalism in the context of being a student in a doctor of physical therapist degree program involves the transitioning from the academic into the professional. This to me requires taking the academic qualities that I own and adapting them into the professionalism that I have observed.
Professionals are held to a different skill level compared to others in the work field. Professionals are required to have a skills level that sets them above all others. Two main skills professionals are required to have mastered are writing and communication. These skills are the main two, but not the only two. Other skills may be research, knowledge, and composure among peers. When in need of an answer others will turn to the professional and expect the professional will have the answer. Could be that professionals are held to a standard he or she cannot even uphold? Is it too much pressure for some? How do we know if we have reached this level of professionalism? How do we know we maintain the level of professionalism? Self-evaluation is a great way to review one’s abilities.
In this paper, I would like to begin with my understanding of professionalism. When thinking of a profession, the first occupation that pops up in my mind is lawyers. The reason is because my projected image of lawyers is that they process specific legal knowledge, which most people do not have. So I think the first element of a profession is to gain a particular area of knowledge, usually through higher education. Professionals initially distinguish themselves among the others by being able to absorb complex and sometimes abstract concepts. Most professions require licenses and certificates, which further distinguish themselves. After having the technical knowledge, a true professional also needs relevant practical experience to demonstrate the application of his knowledge and skills.
