Stephen Hesterman on 19 Dec 21A profession is an occupation founded upon specialized educational training, whose purpose is to supply disinterested objective counsel and service to others, for direct and definite compensation, wholly apart from expectation of other business gain. Medieval and early modern tradition recognized only three professions: divinity, medicine, and law, which were called the learned professions. A profession is not a trade or an industry.
