name == name of your entity, could be your personal name or name of your
company

country == one or more ISO country codes that you do business in.  If
you do business everywhere you can say "Global"

practice == one or more areas of practice.  I'd like to use this for
categorization, so it will be a fixed list of options.  Currently I'm
proposing: Deployment, Migration, Extensions,  Training,
Customization. Other.    Are there any other areas we should mention
specifically?

I'm saying certification rather than training because others provide the
training we simply provide certification of the outcomes of the training
for users rather than developers.

description == plain text, no HTML, description, limit of 300
characters.  It should be factual, not an advertisement.

website == URL of your website

email (optional) == contact email address

phone number (optional) == contact phone number
