Don't Just Get a Certificate. Earn a Credential That Matters.
12 October 2025
Not all training certificates carry the same weight. At 9001Simplified, we have undergone a rigorous independent audit to achieve a distinction that directly benefits you: Exemplar Global TPECS Certified Training Provider. This means we offer more than a course completion document; we provide a globally recognized mark of proven competence. It’s the difference between showing you attended a class and proving you mastered the skills.
The TPECS Distinction: A Mark of Quality for Your Team and Your Career
Let's clarify the acronyms. In a industry full of them, TPECS is one that signifies a higher standard.
Exemplar Global is the leading, non-profit body that sets the benchmark for auditors and quality professionals worldwide.
To become a TPECS (Training Provider and Examiner Certification Scheme) partner, our entire operation – from course curriculum and exam design to instructor methodology – was subjected to a comprehensive, independent audit. This certification is our commitment to excellence, validated by a global authority.
The Critical Difference: TPECS vs. "Recognized" Providers
Many training companies operate under Exemplar Global's "RTP" (Recognized Training Provider) status. While a credible starting point, this designation does not require the same intensive, course-specific audit.
This is the crucial differentiator: Only TPECS-certified providers like us are authorized to issue official Exemplar Global Competency Units. For your organization or career, this translates into a credential that carries global authority and provides auditable proof of skill.
