United States Another year, another fantastic piece of news for AVADO. We are delighted to announce that we have now received accreditation as a Provider of Training Excellence with the Professional Development Consortium.
But what does being a ‘Provider of Training Excellence’ mean?
This particular accreditation recognises professional training and learning providers that offer high quality training provision.
‘Provider of Training Excellence’ focuses on four key principles:
- The organisation as a whole, including values, goals and structure.
- The learning provision and portfolio, which considers how the content is designed, developed and facilitated.
- The client experience, which involves reviewing delegate feedback
- Maintaining excellence, which includes reviewing processes for evaluation and improvement.
This is a unique accreditation, offering third party verification which goes beyond assessing the organisation, but actually validates client satisfaction and learning impact via a random sample from the provider’s customer base. It’s definitely something to be proud of!
Matt Ayson, Global Product Director at AVADO, said: ‘External verification of our courses is important to ensure we are delivering high quality programmes to both our students and their employers.
‘As well as taking us through a rigorous assessment, the Professional Development Consortium provided relevant and useful recommendations on how we can continue to raise the bar. We are pleased to receive this accreditation from such a credible body as the PDC.’
