About IBCT

Globally

The International Board of Certified Trainers (IBCT) was originally founded in 1988 as a professional association in the United States. Currently, it’s a global foundation acting under the European law. Our main Headquarters is in the Netherlands. IBCT’s mission is to improve the training profession and the public’s perception of it.  It has regional headquarters spread over several regions, i.e., the United States, Middle East & Africa (MENA), Australia and Europe. IBCT is an independent certification authority that certifies trainers & HRD professionals, train-the-trainer (TTT/TOT) programs, training centers & facilities as well as training packages and/or materials.

We are a not-for-profit foundation so we can offer an independent certification that is not influenced by any commercial interests.
IBCT MENA is the Middle East & North Africa Headquarters of IBCT. We conduct several activities related to HRD. Mainly, we internationally certify trainers (via a world-class multi-level TOT program); internationally certify training centers and materials/packages.
The IBCT MENA vision is to become a leading center of excellence and a key benchmark in the field of human resources development across the MENA area.

IBCT Standards and Professionalism are Contagious!

IBCT training is a real drive for development and change in higher education’s institutes. I have observed that all associate trainers trained by IBCT in our Faculty made a tremendous change. Their competencies noticeably increased. I and my AT colleagues turned to be more enthusiastic, skilled and professional. IBCT standards and professionalism are contagious. Being trained by the very professional trainer is one of the most enjoyable experience anyone could have.
