Certification lines, assessment frameworks and certification
A certificate that reflects what a child can truly do.
We develop, manage and continuously improve certification lines, requirements, assessment frameworks, exam programmes, grading methodologies and quality standards — including on behalf of the Dutch Foundation for Water & Swimming Safety (NSWZ). Where the necessary authorisations and accreditations are in place, we also carry out assessment, examination, practical evaluation, awarding and certification.

- Assessment frameworks, exam programmes and grading methodologies
- Practical evaluation, awarding and certification
