The SPECS Accreditation Process

Our comprehensive accreditation process evaluates training programs across three main pillars:

first
General Framework:

We assess the program's title, description, outline, objectives, and structure to ensure a clear purpose and alignment with learner needs.

second
Learning Design & Development and Delivery:

We evaluate learning outcomes, topic clarity, design, references, activities, delivery, and resources to create engaging and effective training experiences.

third
Training Evaluation & Effectiveness:

We validate the evaluation process, learning experience, knowledge assessment, and overall effectiveness to ensure the program meets stakeholder needs.
