Learning design
Clear aims, structure, and a logical progression appropriate to the stated audience and level.
How it works
Three steps. Five working days.
No drawn-out onboarding, no qualifying call before you can see a price. You apply when you're ready; a named assessor does the rest.
1
Submit your course
Complete a single online application and upload your course outline, learning outcomes, sample materials, and assessment method. Self-serve customers can submit a single certificate batch instead of a full programme.
2
We assess it
A named AssuredCPD assessor reviews your submission against the published Standards Framework — learning design, outcomes, delivery quality, and CPD-hour justification. You'll get a clear, written decision within five working days.
3
You're accredited
On approval you receive the AssuredCPD mark and logo licence, a listing in our public provider directory, and verifiable certificates for your learners — each carrying a code anyone can check.
The five-day commitment
Miss the deadline, get the fee back.
Routine assessments are completed within five working days of a complete submission. If we don't return a decision in time, your assessment fee is refunded — no quibble. This is our money-back guarantee, and it's the headline difference between us and bodies that quote a 30-day turnaround.
- Day 0 — complete submission received and acknowledged.
- Days 1–4 — assessor review against the framework; clarifications requested if needed.
- Day 5 — written decision issued: accredited, conditional, or declined with reasons.
- Minor changes? — your assessor advises what to fix; correct it and resend the submission, no extra fee.
