Accreditation

Accreditation is the process of accrediting professionals. When the International Orgtology Institute (IOI) accredits an orgtology practitioner, they officially recognize such person as an orgtology professional. In this, the IOI acknowledges someone as qualified to perform orgtology services, deliver orgtology products, and/or develop such products or services. The IOI only has two types of accreditation. They are Orgtology Specialists and Orgtologists. The IOI also registers users on its site and enrols orgtology students. Further, the IOI endorses service providers and professional institutions. These are not accreditations; they are registrations and endorsements.

 

General Description...

Accreditation is the process in which certification of competency, authority, or credibility is presented. Organizations that issue credentials or certify third parties against official standards are themselves formally accredited by accreditation bodies (such as UKAS or IAS); hence they are sometimes known as "accredited certification bodies". The accreditation process ensures that their certification practices are acceptable, typically meaning that they are competent to test and certify third parties, behave ethically and employ suitable quality assurance.
