Accreditation Types

As part of the Institute's vital role in establishing, managing and raising standards in Learning & Development, we assess and endorse the processes and inherent abilities of learning organisations and departments through four targeted accreditation programmes. 


Accreditation Types

There are four main types of accreditation, click on the relevant accreditation for further information:

Learning Provider Learning Department
Learning Technologies Learning Facilities

 

Learning Provider Accreditation

This programme is tailored for training providers, e-learning companies, learning centres, learning facility providers and technical support centres or any organisation involved within the Learning & Development industry.

Our high accreditation standards are the main reason why organisations can choose Institute accredited companies with confidence - our accreditation process makes it easier for companies to find the best providers.

“We find that most people are aware of Institute accreditation, what it signifies and how important it is to have it."

Samantha Kinstrey, Managing Director, 2e2 Training

Learning Department Accreditation

Accredited learning departments can demonstrate to their own organisation the quality of their services - so that the organisations can be sure that their internal departments' service matches or exceeds that which is commercially available.

This programme is for companies that develop and supply a learning/training service to their own staff.

"The programme has raised our profile within the company and assures the company that the Training Team are delivering to high standards. Working on the portfolio was almost therapeutic, in that I could see as a whole the work my team and I have achieved and delivered to our customers in the past year, recognising achievements as well as areas for improvement."

Learning Technologies Provider Accreditation

Learning Technologies Provider Accreditation guarantees to clients that the providers have the requisite quality in technical capabilities, processes, learning management systems, delivery methods, procedures, materials, staff and facilities.

This programme is for companies that develop and supply learning technologies.

“We believe that the Institute has been instrumental in raising standards in our industry and helping organisations like Saffron to deliver world class solutions to our clients. Membership of the Institute helps our people maintain the high standards that our clients deserve and expect, and helps our clients to buy with confidence.”

Learning Facilities Provider Accreditation

Accreditation empowers Learning Facilities Providers to demonstrate the same level of professional recognition as other training organisations in the supply chain through an independent stamp of approval.

This programme is for companies that develop and supply learning facilities.

“Accreditation was a straightforward, structured and easy to follow; it offers a significant opportunity for our business and enhances our credibility when talking to companies in this industry."
