# Respiratory Care Professional Capabilities and Mastery

The page uses four developmental levels: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced and AI Agent Orchestration Master. A badge is earned from observable, eligible evidence—not a click, prompt count, synthetic starter, self-rating or AI praise.

Each badge shows capability, current level, evidence, date earned, progress, next challenge and governance/safety evidence. Corrections, deletion, expiry, supersession, revocation or authority conflict recompute the award.

Professional, credential, employment, institutional, quality, scholarship, Yellow/Orange or otherwise consequential evidence requires current scope-matched named-human review. Private wellbeing, health, family, relationship, finance, compensation, schedule and recovery data never become badge evidence.

Badges unlock no permission and are not CE credit, licensure, certification, competence, privilege, prescribing authority, payer status, employment validation, research determination, institutional approval or permission to practice. The exact 17 domains, 68 domain criteria and 9 orchestration-capstone criteria are in `config/RT-Capability-Mastery-Criteria.v1.json`.
