Rooted in Global Standards, Adapted for Practical Learning


The ILC validation process is based on ISO 30422, an internationally recognised standard for learning and development reporting. By using ISO 30422 as the foundation and customising it for shorter, impactful learning formats, the ILC ensures that every course delivers both credibility and relevance.

To suit the needs of short-form, practical learning programmes, this standard has been thoughtfully adapted to evaluate:


Programme Relevance

Ensuring alignment with real-world workforce needs.

Learning Design Excellence

Focusing on engagement, clarity, and measurable outcomes.

Applicability to Professionals

Prioritising actionable skills and immediate applicability in professional environments.

Confidence Through a Proven Process

ILC programmes are evaluated against both formal and informal learning benchmarks, offering high-level guidance on effective learning design and evaluation. This ensures:

  • Consistency with international standards
  • Rigorous validation of learning outcomes
  • Credible programmes tailored to today’s workforce demands

Through these processes, ILC provides learners and organisations with the assurance that every accredited programme is a mark of quality, relevance, and professional impact.

ILC Structure and Processes


The Informa Learning Certificate (ILC) structure and processes are designed to ensure that every accredited programme meets the highest standards of educational excellence. Each ILC course undergoes:

Rigorous Assessment

Evaluated by the ILC Assessment Committee (AC), a panel of independent specialists with extensive expertise in learning design and standardisation.

Independent Approval

Approved by the Advisory Committee (ADC), ensuring impartiality and adherence to the strictest criteria.
