You should. We don't certify programmers, so it's a very real risk.
On the other hand, I do not support the efforts of my state to attempt to license software engineers. As it's written, it really only seems like a protectionism racket to keep upstarts from competing with established firms. To whit: employees of S-corps are exempt. Way to miss the entire freaking point, Virginia.
Thank you, this is going into my risk assessment of various dangers.
