  • For a working professional, the right program should connect with responsibilities and career goals.
  • For an employer, it should address a specific capability gap.
  • For an NGO, development partner or public institution, it should fit the participants, program objectives and reporting requirements.

Learning routes

Choose your learning route

The route you choose determines the information needed for admission or a proposal. A public program has a published course specification. A commissioned program begins with a brief and an agreed learning plan. Both should make the delivery method, assessment arrangements and certificate or other completion record clear before you enroll.

Programs

Professional learning for working people

Our program catalog brings together professional and executive learning across business, engineering and technology, professional studies, and social impact and development. Explore subjects such as regional trade, distribution networks, business growth, client acquisition and data analysis through the programs listed on the platform.

Review the individual course page for its current availability and requirements. Consider how the subject connects to your role, what practical work is included, and the time you can commit to learning and assessment. Where an intake date is awaiting confirmation, enquire about the schedule before making a booking.

Corporate training

Corporate training built around your team

Training becomes more useful when it addresses the team's responsibilities and working environment. A corporate commission can focus on technical capability, leadership, governance, finance, trade, technology or operational priorities. The brief should identify the roles involved, the tasks participants need to perform and the systems or cases that can be used in learning.

Depending on the scope, the proposal can include a needs assessment, curriculum outline, facilitator requirements, participant materials, practical exercises and assessment or participation reporting. Delivery location, online access, scheduling and management reporting should be agreed around your organization's needs. Sensitive client material should be handled under the approved confidentiality arrangements.

Funded cohorts

Funded cohorts and institutional programs

NGOs, development partners, associations and public institutions can commission training for beneficiaries, entrepreneurs, professional groups or member organizations. The program begins with a defined participant profile and a clear learning purpose.

An institutional proposal should explain recruitment or selection responsibilities, attendance requirements, delivery support and how progress will be reported. Agree any accessibility, language, location or digital-access requirements early. If a funder needs specific indicators or records, include them in the scope so delivery and reporting are designed together.

Institutions

Strengthening a training institution

Institutions developing a learning offer may need support with curricula, trainer capacity, delivery systems, governance and quality assurance. This is a separate commission from enrolling learners in a public program. Explain the institution's current stage, intended audience, existing resources and development objective so the required work can be assessed.

The assignment should specify the systems or materials being developed, the responsibilities retained by the institution and the approvals it must obtain. Institutional development work does not by itself create regulatory approval or an awarding-body relationship.

Credentials

Understand the program and its credential

Credentials vary by program. A course may be professional development, preparation for an external examination, a program linked to an awarding body, or learning assessed and certified by Credence Institute. These routes should be described accurately on the relevant course page.

Before enrolling, check who issues the award, the applicable approval or recognition, the assessment requirements and any separate examination fees. A certificate of attendance records participation; an assessed credential requires the stated assessment. Employer recognition and professional-body requirements should be considered in relation to the specific program and its current status.

How it works

From enquiry to learning and reporting

  1. 1

    Public programs

    For a public program, review the course information, ask any questions about suitability and follow its enrollment instructions.

  2. 2

    Commissioned training

    For commissioned training, share the team or cohort profile, learning goals, timing, location and budget.

  3. 3

    Agreed proposal

    An agreed proposal then sets out the program, delivery arrangements, responsibilities, fees and reporting.

  4. 4

    Delivery and completion

    During delivery, attendance and any required assessment should be recorded. At completion, participants and the commissioning organization should receive the outputs specified for that program. Agree a follow-up review where your institution needs to assess how learning is being applied.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I enroll as an individual?

Explore the public program catalog and review the course's entry requirements, schedule, fees and enrollment instructions. Enquire where an intake or requirement is not yet confirmed.

Can our organization train a whole team?

Yes. Use the corporate training route and describe the participant roles, capability gap, preferred format, schedule and reporting your institution needs.

Can an NGO commission beneficiary training?

Yes. Share the beneficiary profile, learning goals, geography, delivery needs and funder reporting requirements so a cohort program can be scoped.

Are all programs internationally accredited?

Credential and approval status varies by program. Check the named awarding body, current approval, assessment process and issuer on the specific course page.

Is training the same as registration for an external exam?

It may be a separate purchase. A preparation course should state whether examination registration and fees are included, and which organization conducts the assessment.

Can delivery fit our working schedule?

Discuss the participant availability and preferred delivery method. The confirmed course schedule or commissioned proposal should specify the arrangements that can be provided.

How do you report a commissioned program?

Agree the required attendance, assessment, participant and management reporting in the proposal. The reporting format should reflect the learning objective and the buyer's needs.

Can you support a training institution we are developing?

Yes, subject to an agreed institutional-development scope. Describe the curricula, trainer capacity, delivery systems or quality processes you need to strengthen.

Part of the Credence Africa system

Credence Institute sits alongside Credence Africa’s advisory services, Credence Engage and Credible Perspectives. A training brief may connect with research or an institutional event where those services contribute to the same objective. Any additional work should be identified in the proposal, with its own deliverables and terms.

Plan your learning or training commission

Choose a program for your own development, or bring a brief for your team or institutional cohort. We will discuss the relevant route and the information needed to proceed.
