Dog obedience/training?
Do most people have their dogs trained?
Is it better to have a professional who has more experience to train your dog or is it better for YOU to train your dog?
It is always best for YOU to be trained to properly interact with and train your dog by someone who is a knowledgeable and eclectic instructor - this isn't dictated by 'professional' status but can often be found in local obedience and/or agility clubs. You cannot properly train your dog if you are not trained yourself to work with him.
The 'experience' you want is someone who has a lot of differing techniques and has instructed others to be successful in their training/trialing endeavors as well as has trained and trialed themselves at various levels, at least above the one they are training you in. Most 'professionals' are merely bought and paid for certification things from taking six week courses and the like and the people have really very little actual experiences themselves. Take your time to look around for instructors and go watch them in a class situation and discuss their techniques and knowledge with them. They should be able to let you know that they utilize various techniques and are not 'one trick ponies' that can't adjust their training styles and techniques to the variations in people and dogs.
Good luck
