Research in sociology has, since the early 1900s, largely focused on studying various occupations and levels of professionalism (Evetts, 2006). The sociological community has long sought to define professions and the features that set them apart from other types of work. A person's definition of professionalism may differ from another's, according to Fox (1992). It appears that the best approach to comprehend professionalism is by examining it in the context of a particular occupation and its own environment. According to the Confederation of Asian and Pacific Accountants (CAPA), a profession is defined as an occupation that calls for specialized knowledge, a high level of education, and, in some cases, practical experience (CAPA, 2011). All of these things are necessary for a job. A profession is seen as a distinct kind of occupational work, as pointed out by Evetts (2009) and Hargreaves (2000), in contrast to professionalization, which is defined as the way in which a professional group aims to acquire and uphold more characteristics of a profession.
