Accreditation Services

Accreditation, done for you.

We help organizations become certified Continuing Education providers, launch approved programs, and stay in compliance with the certification boards their audience actually needs. Family-owned in Erie, PA since 1998.

The Reality

Accreditation is intentionally difficult. That’s the point.

Every state, every board, every credential has its own rules, often written in language that’s been layered on for decades. Applications are dense. Renewal cycles are constant. Rejection means starting over. And multi-state expansion multiplies the complexity by every jurisdiction you add.

It’s designed this way to protect professional standards. But for an organization trying to launch or scale a program, it usually means one full-time specialist doing nothing but paperwork. Or, more often, a program that never launches at all.

How we simplify it

Twenty-five years of relationships with the people who actually approve programs.

We’ve been the accreditation team for 2,000+ clients since 1998. Companies, associations, certification bodies, and licensing organizations. We know how each board thinks, what language they approve, and how to move an application through review without avoidable delays.

Speed to launch

Most single-state approvals in 30–90 days. Multi-state rollouts sequenced so your program is live on the timeline you need.

Compliance-first curriculum

Content authored (or audited) to each board's specific language. That's the reason most applications get delayed.

Nationwide coverage

One team, one point of contact. Every board, every jurisdiction your audience needs, including multi-state approvals between them.

Ongoing compliance

Renewals, updates, board correspondence, complaint handling. Your approvals stay current without you tracking them.

Our process

Five steps from discovery to a live, multi-state program.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We map your jurisdictions and goals. Then we tell you honestly which paths are realistic and which aren't worth the paperwork.

  2. 02

    Curriculum & compliance mapping

    We audit or author the curriculum so it aligns with each state or accrediting body's language, giving your submissions the best chance of approval.

  3. 03

    Submissions & approvals

    We prepare, submit, and defend every application. Timelines are typically 30–90 days per state.

  4. 04

    Ongoing management

    Renewals, updates, board correspondence, and complaint handling. Approvals stay current without you tracking them.

  5. 05

    Expansion

    Once you're live, we scale you into additional states, verticals, and credential types as fast as the boards allow.

Frequently asked

What clients ask before starting.

Which certification boards do you work with?

That's usually the first thing we talk about. We work with state licensing boards, national credentialing bodies (ANSI, ICE, IACET), industry certification programs, and association-issued credentials. Tell us the audience your program needs to reach and we'll tell you honestly which boards apply, what each one requires, and whether we already have working relationships there.

How long does approval take?

Typically 30–90 days per board, depending on the reviewer and the completeness of the submission. We manage the timeline against your launch date so nothing is a surprise, and we sequence multi-board rollouts so your program is live when you said it would be.

Do you write the curriculum, or do we?

Either model works. For many clients we author content from scratch. For others we take existing materials and rework them to a specific board's approval standard.

What if we already have courses?

We can shepherd existing content through approval. Most existing materials need updates to match a board's specific language — we handle the edits and the submissions.

How is this priced?

By engagement. A single approval is a fixed fee. Multi-board expansions and ongoing management are typically discounted, so the more you do, the deeper the discount. We give a real number after the discovery call.

What happens after approval?

Renewals, updates, board correspondence, and complaint handling, all managed on your behalf. Approvals stay current without you tracking them, and we notify you before anything requires your attention.
