Which term is defined as a list of individuals holding a certification of a particular profession?

• A. Voluntary process through which an agency grants recognition to an individual on demonstration or testing of skills.
• B. Document specifying the minimum standards for the accreditation of a program, as approved by JRC.
• C. Professional organization that appoints members of the joint review committee board.
• D. List of individuals holding a certification of a particular profession.

Answer: (D)

A registry (also called a roster) is an official list of individuals who hold a certification. It serves as a public or organizational record that allows quick verification of who is certified and under which certifying body. The other descriptions refer to how certification is earned (the testing process), the standards used to accredit programs, or the governance body that oversees certification activities, none of which describe the compiled list of certified individuals. So the phrasing given is the direct definition of a registry.
