By jurisdiction
The same index read the other way round. What one country, state or province publishes about every trade it regulates, side by side, because an authority is answerable for all of its registers and not just the one somebody happened to look at.

Best grade is the highest any single register in that jurisdiction reaches. It is not an average and it is not a judgement on the place: one excellent register does not redeem four search forms beside it.
Why this view exists
A professional is regulated by a place, not by a table. Somebody inside a ministry who wants to know what their own country already publishes needs it grouped this way, and so does a journalist writing about one jurisdiction rather than about the world.
It also makes the internal contradictions visible. Several countries in this index run one register that is close to exemplary and another, next door in the same administration, that cannot be looked up at all.
Nothing here is new research. Every row is the same hand-checked row from the index, regrouped. A correction to one row corrects it in every view at once.
Sub-national entries appear under their own code because what one state publishes says nothing about its neighbour. Australia, Canada, the United States and India all appear more than once for that reason.
