CISV seeks to ensure that all of our training is delivered to a consistently high standard by trained, certified and experienced trainers. To become a CISV trainer, you will have to gain certification through attending our Training for Trainers course (TTT).

To apply to attend a TTT, you will need to submit an application to a Regional Training Forum offering a TTT in your region. Please note that as TTTs are primarily intended for those who will be providing training nationally or internationally, your application will need to be endorsed by your National Association or International Committee. You will also be asked to include the name, role and contact details of the person endorsing your application.

Once your application has been registered, you will be sent a questionnaire to complete. The questionnaire gives TTT trainers useful background information on you and the other participants, allowing them to develop a workshop that better meets your individual needs.

You can find out more about out TTT training in a number of ways:


TTT Re-certification

The TTT re-certification process is for all CISV trainers whose TTT certificate is expiring.

The process is led by the Re-certification Team with the support of the Training and Quality Assurance (TQA) Committee.

In order to be re-certified as a trainer, you must complete the following steps:

  • Phase 1: Register and complete an online questionnaire.
  • Phase 2: Submit a training session template.
  • Phase 3: Give feedback on a training session.

Please contact the Re-certification Team for any further questions.

The TTT re-certification takes place online annually between 1st October and 30th November. Eligible persons are invited to participate during the month of September. If you believe you should be invited and do not receive an invitation by the 1st October, please contact the Re-certification Team.
