What is Accreditation?

Accreditation is a standardized framework that establishes a set of pre-defined international measurement standards used to evaluate the performance of training providers. It involves examining and assessing program procedures, curricula, and services to ensure they meet accreditation standards. The goal is to verify that training providers are capable of applying quality standards effectively. Once providers meet these conditions, they are granted accreditation, allowing them to carry out their duties and activities with approval.
