What do you think this poem is about?

Qualifications

Qualifications give me a license
To treat that I know more than what I know
And give others a notion about me
That I know more than I truly know.

Qualifications misguide in two ways:
A confidence booster to the holders;
A hall-mark to the estimators.
Qualifications are sold for a price.
