Independent certification body

A certificate that
survives scrutiny.

We certify the course, the trainer who teaches it, and every learner who completes it — then publish it where anyone can check.

On the certificate

Six things an employer can check.

Every ADRIG certificate carries the same six. None of them depend on trusting the provider.

Certificate number
Unique to the learner. Checkable by anyone, free, without an account.
Category code
One of twelve. An employer writes the code in a job advert instead of naming courses.
Level
One to seven, set by guided learning hours and assessed depth — not by the provider.
Guided hours
How long the learning actually took. Printed on the certificate, so it cannot be inflated later.
Named trainer
The person who taught it. Send someone else and the certificates are withdrawn.
Issue and expiry
Three years. After that the provider re-certifies or the record lapses.

Why it holds

A badge anyone can print is worth nothing.

The trainer is checked

Named person, evidenced experience, photo on file.

The course actually ran

Proof of delivery required before any certificate exists.

One course, one approval

No blanket badges. Each course is assessed on its own.

We withdraw

Break the rules and certificates are pulled — publicly.
