The Importance of Accreditation
Accredited International Training and Coaching Curriculums share the vision and goals of AIOBP to improve business through psychology and have a competent process or methodology to truly make a difference. This assures the public that AIOBP accredited programs and instructions will provide real value and results for their training or coaching efforts.
To ensure the standard of excellence accredited organizations or methodologies have successfully completed all requirements of the international training or coaching accreditation process. Additionally, they demonstrate a readiness to develop organizations within the educational framework and principles of AIOBP, to provide leadership and expertise to trainers or coaches who will be certified and share in the accreditation through your organization. They will also be able to implement the highest international standard in training, coaching and organizational development.
The benefit of accreditation to organizations and methodologies is that as a globally recognized, independent credentialing body, the AIOBP assists quality curriculums and organizations to be recognized above the rest.
Training Curriculum Accreditation is the first step for eligibility to credential or certify trainers, practitioners or facilitators. Before a trainer, practitioner or facilitator can be certified, they must be deemed competent in an accredited methodology or curriculum for training and facilitation.
Organizations or enterprises that use or develop an effective psychology based process for training and/or facilitation and whose curriculum meets the following criteria should apply.
