Foundation & Practitioner

The majority of our qualification training provides Foundation and Practitioner level certifications. Foundation teaches the curriculum and participants gain a recognised, permanent qualification. Following completion of this training, participants also have the option of progressing on to complete their Practitioner level at any time and through any registered provider. Practitioner is the qualification organisations seek in professionals working in a relevant area, and in those involved in the organisational process.

Prerequisites

No prerequisite is required for Foundation, but any prior experience or knowledge of the area being covered is a definite advantage. Foundation certification is generally a prerequisite for Practitioner.
