PROFILE: My journey to Professional Registration - Kojo Hudson

Posted by on

Construction Professional Kojo Hudson shares his journey towards Professional registration to encourage Hardhat Professionals who are considering taking the same journey.


When I embarked on this journey for Professional Registration I had to overcome many obstacles. I have a very demanding career and as a result it was very difficult for me to make  the time to sit down and put together my reports. I had to sacrifice time with family and friends to ensure I got this done. 


I soldiered on because I have always viewed Professional registration as a fundamental statutory condition for practicing on your own accord and proof of experience, knowledge, transparency, ethical standards. I also believed the registration is essential for handling clients' assets.


The journey has been good especially for my confidence, knowing that I hold myself to an ethical standard feels good. Being professionally registered means I need to tread with caution and ensure that my clients interests are always put forward.

I highly recommend this journey to all Hardhat Professionals however it isn't for the faint hearted. There will be times when quitting will feel like the best option, but I advise you not to give into those thoughts. As a Hardhat Professional there is an expectation of high standards of service and belonging to a body like the SACPCMP is a guarantee and proof of professionalism and competency.
