hi,

exactly, i can tell you what happens when there are basically no standards 
such as the state giving you the exact questions and answers to a test then 
asking you to recite the answers to become aproved as a contractor.

i think there are some standards to obtain a harness.
if i said my dog is a service or guide dog, it would definitely give the 
public a negative impression about the legit ones.
