Benefits of accredited training.

Nationally accredited training refers to educational training programs that have been formally recognised and approved by a national accrediting body or authority. This type of accreditation ensures that the training meets specific standards of quality and relevance, making it widely accepted across the country.

This lack of accreditation means the training may not meet established quality standards, potentially limiting its acceptance and recognition.
