Morphology
recertification = certification (transparent) = re + cert + ify + ation
For learners who know 'certification', the prefix 're-' straightforwardly adds the meaning 'again' or 'renewal'.
Etymology
Recertification comes from the prefix re- meaning 'again' and certify, which comes from the idea 'certain' or 'sure'. So recertification is the process of making sure again that someone or something still meets the required standards.
