What does it mean to be a CQI and IRCA Approved Training Provider?

Batalas has been a CQI and IRCA Approved Training Provider since the scheme began in 2016.

To become certified, training providers must develop ISO training courses in accordance with an internationally recognised criteria (framework) set by CQI and IRCA; this not only establishes the correct course content for the learner but also stipulates the style of training, plus tutor suitability and experience. After receiving certified status, we must adhere to strict regulations whereby our documented processes are audited annually by CQI IRCA to ensure we continue to follow the course framework.

By following the CQI IRCA framework and offering certified ISO training, we can ensure we continue to teach delegates the required knowledge and skills by a qualified tutor in an appropriate delivery method.

We pride ourselves on being a CQI and IRCA Approved Training Provider, demonstrating our commitment to delivering ISO training to the highest standard.
