GENERIC TRAINING COURSE CERTIFICATION

TRAINING PROVIDER AND EXAMINER CERTIFICATION SCHEME

London, Milwaukee and Sydney; IRCA and RABQSA International announce the signing of a bilateral agreement that allows the mutual recognition of each others’ training course certifications.

Both organizations are engaging in a series of peer evaluations that will identify those certification products that are mutually acceptable. These, and others over time, will be added formally to a register of mutually accepted certificates that will be made publicly available.

IRCA director Simon Feary comments; “Training is now a global market and there are major advantages in aligning our certification products and making them mutually acceptable. The training organizations, the delegates and indeed everyone benefits.”

Auditor and training certification bodies and the whole certification industry is increasingly under pressure to add value. Aligning our products and accepting each other’s certifications is a positive step in that direction.” It is intended that the bilateral agreement will commence on completion of the first round of peer evaluations.
