Recognised vs Accreditation:
What's the difference?

Both routes provide CMI endorsement but they differ in purpose, outcomes, and requirements. Recognition demonstrates that a programme aligns with CMI’s Professional Standard framework. Accreditation is a more formal process intended for programmes that lead to a CMI qualification.
