AATD QUALITY CERTIFICATION
AATD’s Quality Certification is designed to empower professionals in training & development. Our main goal is to ensure excellence in your programs, concepts, and systems through our prestigious Quality Certificates. We understand that the quality of training institutes, business consultancies, independent training professionals, and coaches can vary significantly, often falling short of the latest best practices and quality standards for competency and performance-based training, learning, and development. With our certification, you can elevate your offerings to meet and exceed these standards, showcasing your commitment to delivering exceptional learning and development experiences.

- Is the instructional system design (ISD) in accordance with quality standards?
- How high is the praxis relevance of the program content?
- Are the learning objectives clearly communicated?
- Is there an assessment that measures the entrance behavior?
