| Headline: | British Accreditation Certified Practitioner (CP) Award Scheme |
| Description: | The Certified Practitioner (CP) gold award is a further example of the BABS work.
Originally developed for the Government’s business support agencies in the early 1990's, the CP award certifies the credentials of professional consultants and trainers. This personnel certification requires consultants to demonstrate their expertise across a range of abilities. Their qualifications and claims are verified, client references are checked and they are required to have a minimum level of professional indemnity insurance. To ensure standards are maintained, CPs must adhere to a Code of Professional Conduct, they are required to undergo continuing professional development (CPD) and their work is regularly monitored. This CP scheme is operated to this day and forms the content for The Consultant Register which is available FREE of charge to those who need access to accredited consultants. Over the years many thousands of consultants have been accredited and a Gold Award is given for outstanding performance each month. There are also annual awards across the 10 areas of specialism and an overall winner. |
