What accreditation means
The difference between accredited CPD, a regulated qualification, and a certificate that only records attendance.
Check a certificate
How to verify an accreditation reference printed on a certificate, and what to do if the reference does not match our records.
Accreditation is not a qualification
Accreditation means a learning activity has been assessed against our Standards. It is not a regulated qualification, and it does not by itself satisfy a requirement set by a professional body or a statutory regulator. Always check what your own body requires.
Raise a concern
Tell us if a learning activity did not deliver what was described, or if the accreditation mark is being displayed on something that is not accredited. You can report confidentially or anonymously.
