The Colorado Department of Education defines "Professional" using the following descriptors:

My Personal Definition of Professionalism:
Professionalism is not about wearing a suit and tie, its about how you treat others at a work site. Depending how you act around your classmates or coworkers, is your level of professionalism. How you address your friend, how you talk around your coworkers, is all professionalism.
