What this platform does
One system, from application to public record

IASE Africa recognises CPD providers and approves their programmes under a single, structured quality-assurance framework — and makes every decision publicly verifiable.

Apply & get recognised

Training organisations apply for recognition and programme approval, assessed against the ESG ASCEND™ Framework.

Manage your accreditation

Recognised providers manage programmes, credits, documents and renewals from a dedicated provider portal.

Be publicly verifiable

Every approval becomes a public record — searchable by reference or name on the IASE Africa registries.

How it fits together
