Questions

Frequently asked

What is AIOBP accreditation?
An independent quality standard for training, coaching, consulting and psychometric assessment programs built on organizational psychology. Accreditation means your methodology was independently evaluated and verified to deliver competency-based outcomes — real behavioral change, not just knowledge transfer.
How is AIOBP different from other accreditation bodies?
AIOBP specializes exclusively in psychology-based methodologies, and it does not provide training itself — it is purely an accrediting and verifying body, which guarantees independence and impartiality.
Does my program need to be US-based?
No. AIOBP accredits internationally, with accredited methodologies practiced across 45+ countries. Standards align with US Department of Education guidelines for international accreditation and reference the IAF framework.
What does it cost?
Accreditation review is a one-time US$2,000 fee per methodology or curriculum. Maintaining accredited status requires Accredited Enterprise Membership at US$880/year, which includes the seal, directory listing, credentialing rights and promotion. See the Pricing page for the full breakdown.
How long does it take?
It depends on the completeness of your application materials. The AIOBP team guides applicants through the review and provides feedback — contact us early to understand the full requirements.
