How to accredit events with APIL

If you are a training provider and wish to accredit your events with APIL, please complete an annual application form which can be found below:

• Standard annual fee - £100 + VAT
• Registered charity annual fee - no annual fee

Upon approval, you may apply for APIL accreditation on an event by event basis.

By accrediting training offered by other providers, we give APIL members greater choice and flexibility in how they fulfil their training commitments. Accredited members are required to complete a minimum of 16 CPD hours per year (this training must have been approved and accredited by APIL). Accredited training is promoted to APIL members and non-members and you will be able to use the term 'Accredited by APIL Training' at your course and on marketing materials, demonstrating that your training meets APIL's high quality standards.

We offer accreditation on both face-to-face and distance learning events. Training courses and conferences may be repeated in different locations and you only need to accredit each series once*. You will need to complete the event application and include the fee of:

• Fee for each event series less than 3 CPD hours - £85 + VAT
• Fee for each event series 3 to 6 CPD hours - £160 + VAT
• Fee for each event series more than 6 CPD hours - £260 + VAT

Charity rates

• Fee for each event series less than 6 CPD hours - £35.00 + VAT
• Fee for each event series more than 6 CPD hours - £80.00 + VAT

From time to time, APIL assessors may attend accredited training courses or a full pack of training materials may be requested, after the event, to monitor objectives against the actual programme. All information can be found in the guidance forms.
