Program content
The program must state audience, duration, outcomes, uniqueness, references, assumptions, and non-proprietary sources used.
Program endorsement
Credential the program, not only the trainer.
GTF program endorsement reviews whether a training product has clear outcomes, current content, referenced sources, suitable delivery design, compliant materials, and documentary evidence to support approval.
Endorsement standard
What GTF checks before endorsing a program.
Endorsement validates the training product. It does not replace trainer credentialing, and it does not guarantee client results. It gives buyers a stronger basis to inspect content quality and learning design.
Delivery design
The flow must support learning through practice, interaction, feedback, application, and transfer beyond the workshop.
Materials standard
Slides and participant materials must avoid distorted visuals, unlicensed images, uncited quotes, and overloaded text.
Documentary review
Every proposed program is reviewed from evidence first.
Program endorsement should rely on submitted documents, materials, assessment links, and reviewer notes. Normal review uses three Master Trainer reviewers. The Trainer Quality Council steps in only for disputes, appeals, unclear evidence, complaints, badge misuse, or standards consistency issues.
One Master Trainer from the applicant's home country checks local relevance and delivery context.
One Master Trainer from the same training domain checks subject fit and evidence quality.
One independent Master Trainer adds a third review before endorsement is granted.
The council is used only when evidence is disputed, unclear, appealed, complained about, or linked to badge misuse.
What members submit
A review packet, not a sales brochure.
Audience, outcomes, duration, delivery mode, trainer role, and target workplace application.
What makes the program distinct, what sources it uses, and where citations appear in materials.
Learning activities, participant practice, assessment, follow-up method, and evidence of implementation support.
Slide sample, workbook or participant materials, image/license confirmation, and certificate or badge usage request if relevant.
Endorsement fees
Program endorsement fees are charged in USD.
Fees pay for program evidence review, panel administration, registry administration, and endorsement record control. They do not guarantee endorsement. Regional Access Pricing changes the fee only; the review standard stays the same for every applicant.
