Accreditation courses

The Accreditation Committee is in the process of compiling a list of available training that is suitable to help you prepare for the examination or to contribute to your continued professional education. The Accreditation Course List provides an overview of educational events known to the committee. The list is by no means complete, or comprehensive, which is why the Accreditation Committee is requesting your input. If you know, or have attended, any suitable training event not yet listed, please fill in the Accreditation Course List Proposal Form and send it to accreditations@qpip.org at your earliest convenience.

NB:

  • All listed courses are accredited by the QPIP Accreditation Committee.
  • The list simply provides an overview rather than any recommendations.
  • QPIPs who have attended a suitable event in recent years, and are willing to share their experience, are invited to complete the Accreditation Course Evaluation Form and return it to the Accreditations Committee at accreditations@qpip.org at their earliest convenience. Thank you.
