One can receive a certificate of training, provided by some organization, even the employer.  It is not the same as certification which usually indicates a traceable program of training and testing that embodies standards verified by an independent body.  
It is possible to go through training and yet not test to a level that receives certification.  In some cases, one can recieve a certificate that shows attendance at training even if the final test was not aced.  One may need a certificate to show training, but that is not the same as certification.  I believe you are paying for a 'certification' that has very little weight.  Show us an example of where this certification was used to successfully defend you against legal action while performing tasks that you are 'certified' in.  If it has no legal weight in your defense, you have training but you do not have certification even with that paper.  Certification means your skills have been verified by an authority as having met some standard.  Since the FCC only requires training, but they would appear to be the 'certifying' agency, if such was required, there is a disconnect here.  What you appear to actually receive is really just a certificate of training, not a certification, despite the hype and cost.

Where is your proof of "trained?"
