CRKBO Accreditation

The CRKBO (Dutch “Centraal Register Kort Beroepsonderwijs”) is the Central Register for Short Vocational Education. Admittance into this register is exclusive to educational institutions that operate within the quality code and regulations set forth by the Dutch government for tax legislation and within the European Union guidelines for quality vocational education. Registration only occurs after an institution successfully passes an audit by an independent body designated by the Dutch government (the CPION – Centrum Post-Initieel Onderwijs, or Center for Post-Initial Education). The audit is based on the code of conduct of the Dutch Council for Training & Education (NRTO). Any institution registered with the CRKBO is required to operate under qualitative codes & regulations and therefore must set itself apart from other institutions.

Global NLP Training, through its legal entity, Concept Indigo Limited, passed the audit on all counts upon its first application.
