ICE launched its accreditation program for assessment-based certificate programs in 2012.
The ICE 1100:2019 Standard was developed in order to provide guidance to organizations developing assessment-based certificate programs. It highlights the essential elements of a high-quality program, focusing on eight main sections:
- Program Scope
- Organizational Structure, Resources, and Responsibilities to Stakeholders;
- Conduct and Oversight of Certificate Program Activities;
- Management of Program Records, Documents, and Materials;
- Quality Assurance and Program Evaluation;
- Development, Delivery, and Maintenance of Education/Training;
- Development, Conduct, and Evaluation of Assessments; and
- Issuance and Use of Certificates.
Accreditation for professional education and training programs provides impartial, third-party validation that your program has met recognized national and international credentialing industry standards for development, implementation, and maintenance of education and training.
