To become a professional, the person must pursue their studies (in general, a BEP or university studies) and possess a degree or a title attesting knowledge and fitness to practise.

The professional term also alludes to the activity that is conducted as a profession (insofar as it implies an economic rewards), and not as a hobby. This difference is visible in the case of sports. A man who plays football every week is not a football player or a professional player, as it does in a recreational way. On the other hand, one who plays each week for cash is a professional of this sport.
