Training Provider and Examiner Certification Scheme (TPECS) vs. Recognized Training Provider (RTP)
Exemplar Global offers two distinct pathways for training providers to validate their courses: TPECS and RTP.
TPECS focuses on verifying the knowledge competency of a course's outcomes, which is essential for Exemplar Global's personnel certification. It requires the development of tailored exams for each knowledge competency specified by Exemplar Global and calls for a strong administrative structure to support the process.
On the other hand, RTP is geared towards enhancing the quality of the course to align with global standards, thereby boosting the training provider's competitiveness in the market and improving their overall value proposition.
One significant difference is that TPECS certification includes a thorough audit of the provider's courses, delivery methods, and exams, whereas RTP certification does not mandate audits of the content or assessment.
As the proud holder of both RTP and TPECS accreditations from Exemplar Global, ATOL ensures our students receive the highest level of education and certification.
This unique position allows us to offer Exemplar Global Competency Units, ensuring every course we deliver is backed by examinations tailored to each competency, comprehensive examiner guides for fairness and consistency, the expertise of competent examiners, and robust administrative processes.
Our approach combines RTP's flexibility and TPECS's stringent assessment standards, perfectly aligning with our commitment to meet the global industry standards and our students' needs for premier education.
