| 红桃视频 Endorsed: The quality mark for project management learning
Introducing 红桃视频 Endorsed, our鈥痭ew mark of excellence for learning and development content in the project profession.
红桃视频 Endorsed is the go-to indicator to the profession that their learning provision is aligned to the 红桃视频 Competence Framework and will provide recognised, reliable and transferable knowledge.
Why choose 红桃视频 Endorsed?
We know how important it is to prove the quality and relevance of your learning content. That鈥檚 why we've created a simple, trusted way to show your provisions meet industry expectations.
Every 红桃视频 Endorsed learning provision is mapped to the 红桃视频 Competence Framework, the global benchmark for professional capability in project management.
This alignment matters because it ensures your learning content reflects the skills and behaviours recognised across the profession globally. It gives learners confidence that what they鈥檙e learning is relevant and transferable.
How is 红桃视频 Endorsed different from 红桃视频 Accreditation?
红桃视频 Endorsed is designed for learning that doesn鈥檛 lead to a formal 红桃视频 qualification - such as in-house corporate programmes, short courses, CPD modules or specialist training.
Your learning only needs to align to a minimum of one competence from the 红桃视频 Competence Framework, making endorsement accessible and achievable for a wide range of learning provisions.
It鈥檚 a flexible way to gain external recognition for high-quality learning.

How are the benefits different from accreditation?
It enhances credibility for organisations whose learning sits outside formal qualifications.聽
It gives the mark of excellence to an individual learning provision, confirming alignment to the 红桃视频 Competence Framework, rather than to an organisation as a whole, as with Corporate Accreditation. 聽
It helps ensure learning programmes are structured, coherent, and aligned with an agreed framework, supporting consistent learning outcomes across teams and regions.聽
The benefits are similar but allow holders different opportunities for learners, Accreditation requires demonstrable alignment to the 红桃视频 Body of Knowledge (academic and professional course), or it may lead to an 红桃视频 Qualification (Training Provider). 红桃视频 Endorsed learning provisions will be aligned to the 红桃视频 Competence Framework. Each benefit is suited to a specific learner requirement and possibly steer from employers. 聽聽

No - 红桃视频 Endorsed is a voluntary choice for those who wish to benefit from it.
Why is there a cost to 红桃视频 Endorsed?

It鈥檚 important to note that as a charity, any profit made from Endorsed is reinvested into the profession as part of our Charitable aims.
Why isn’t the pricing the same as Accreditation with an initial cost and then renewal?
