Many zakat amils who work in zakat management institutions have different educational backgrounds, experiences, and knowledge as well as understandings regarding good and correct zakat management schemes. Therefore, to create standardization of the same zakat management capabilities in each zakat management institution, the amil zakat certification is one of the right ways to go towards this. Amil zakat certification is formulated to create amil to have superior and tested work competence, to create effectiveness and efficiency in managing zakat. At BAZNAS Cilacap Regency itself, there are at least two amil who have participated in the amil zakat certification and are declared competent. For this reason, the purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the amil zakat certification in increasing amil competence at BAZNAS Cilacap Regency.

The results of the study show that the effectiveness of the amil zakat certification in increasing amil competence at BAZNAS Cilacap Regency, in general can be said to be quite effective.
