The workplace and executive training industry is a multi-billion dollar industry, but a significant portion of that budget is spent on programs that have not been rigorously examined to ensure their fit for purpose and deliver value for the money. If you are signing off on that budget or asking your people to spend time on training programs, shouldn't that concern you? Training accreditation offers vital quality assurance, ensures global consistency of results, and delivers accountability for learning and performance outcomes. Apart from delivering better results and greater ROI, organizations can differentiate themselves from their competitors in the employment marketplace by offering accredited proprietary training. Aligning with the standards set by the International Association of Continuing Education and Training (IACET), the authors offer principles for quality program structure, delivery, and improvement needed to achieve accreditation. They share practices used by high-quality training program managers today, covering business alignment and program administration along with the planning, design, delivery, and evaluation of learning systems.
