Training course accreditation

If you run a course that is either introductory and aimed at non-ergonomists, or specialist and aimed at providing CPD (continuing professional development) for ergonomists, then please consider applying for CIEHF accreditation.

Courses can take any format from an introductory 2 hour workshop to a 60 credit Postgraduate Certificate (awarded from a Qualifying Course).

Courses accredited by us will be actively promoted through this website, at conferences, and in response to enquiries for training. Only accredited or ‘recognised’ courses are recommended to people who ask us about ergonomics/human factors training.

You can use a special CIEHF recognised course logo and the text “This is a CIEHF Recognised Course” in your publicity for the course.

Key points

Course certificates

We can issue you with a certificate for each successful delegate, which we can send to you by post or you can print them yourself. We keep lists of all delegates and records of dates on which each accredited course is run, so as a provider you will need to supply us with this information. We make a charge of £10 per delegate to cover this adminstration and our marketing of your course.
