Impartiality
A commercial relationship or cohort sponsorship does not change requirements or an individual decision.
American Institute of Professional Certification
Built to evaluate. Independent from training.
AIPC defines certification schemes, assesses professional knowledge and capability, makes certification decisions, issues credentials and enables verification.
Our purpose
Turn professional capability into evidence an organization can use.
AIPC serves employers, recruiting firms, universities and institutions that need an external benchmark for selection, promotion, qualification and learning-outcome decisions. Delivery is coordinated in cohorts, but every certification decision is individual.
AIPC is not an academy, does not sell courses as a condition of certification and never awards a credential for attendance alone. Preparation may be independent or provided by third parties.
Institutional principles
Trust is designed into the system.
Claim discipline
Every credential claims only what the evidence obtained can support.
Recognized references
Schemes use relevant standards, frameworks and technical sources where appropriate.
Verifiable status
A credential exists within rules for validity, maintenance, suspension and revocation.
