Definition
职业化 is a verb meaning 'to professionalize' or 'to become professional' — the process by which an activity, organization, or workforce adopts professional standards, training, and norms. It's often used in contexts like sports (运动员的职业化), business (管理的职业化), or any field moving from amateur to professional status. The suffix 化 ('-ization') marks it as a process verb, so it can take objects or be used intransitively.
