I would take the teachers' side on this and say I'm against it. There are tons of professions that require certification similar to teachers but no one is suggesting they have to go through a review process every 5 years in order to keep their certification.
Teachers are constantly forced to attend conferences and other seminars to ensure their knowledge is up-to date.
Same with other professions, if they make a mistake their employer can fire them. I don't think we need to strip anyone of their certification and tell them they cannot continue doing what they do as a career anymore.

If they are stripped of their certification would they be able to obtain certification again? None the less to obtain certification it is a 2-year full-time university process. How much does two years of university (plus loss of earning power) cost these days?
