What exactly qualifies as a “Japanese National Qualification”?

I've recently been made aware of the Japanese permanent resident point system, and shockingly enough, I'm not far off.
In the final section, it mentions having 0, 1, or 2 "Japanese National Qualifications."

To my knowledge, I don't have anything like that. However, I've been seeing a lot of conflicting information about what that means. I have heard that it means qualifications that:
– you can use in Japan as long as it's in your field of work

– qualifications you have earned IN Japan

– any sort of technical certification

– etc.

If I manage to acquire one of whatever these are, I would qualify. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
