A certified diamond is one that has been evaluated by a professional in whatever certification method is documented by the certificate. For example, the Gemological Institute of America -- GIA -- certifies diamonds by documenting the colour, clarity, cut and carat weight of the diamond. This establishes the individual characteristics of the gem.
