The International Association for Quality Assurance in Pre-Tertiary and Higher Education (QAHE) is excited to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the International Association of Coaches, Therapists & Mentors (IACTM). This strategic partnership aims to foster mutual recognition, cooperation, and collaboration between the two organizations, enhancing professional development opportunities in the fields of coaching, therapy, mentoring, and education.

Effective from November 8, 2024, the MOU establishes a framework that promotes shared goals and resources. By acknowledging each other’s accreditation and certification processes, both QAHE and IACTM aim to enhance credibility and trust within their respective sectors. This collaboration signifies a commitment to maintaining high professional standards and ethical practices that benefit both organizations and their members.

One of the primary objectives of this MOU is to facilitate academic and professional development. QAHE and IACTM will work together to create and deliver training programs, workshops, and resources designed to support the growth and development of their members. By pooling their expertise and resources, both organizations can offer enriched educational experiences that align with the evolving needs of professionals in coaching, therapy, and mentoring.

In addition to collaborative training initiatives, the MOU emphasizes the importance of cross-promotion. Both QAHE and IACTM will promote each other’s events, certifications, and resources through various communication channels, including newsletters, websites, and social media platforms. This initiative aims to broaden the reach of their programs and enhance visibility within the professional community.

Joint initiatives represent another significant aspect of this partnership. QAHE and IACTM will explore opportunities for collaborative projects that align with their missions and goals. By focusing on ethical practices and professional standards, both organizations can contribute to the advancement of their fields while providing valuable resources to their members.

As part of this collaboration, IACTM has agreed to provide QAHE with access to its directory of accredited coaches, therapists, and mentors, potentially fostering new collaborations. In return, QAHE will share information about IACTM’s accreditation services and professional development resources with its accredited institutions. This reciprocal exchange of information is designed to enhance the quality of services offered by both organizations.

Moreover, QAHE will promote IACTM’s initiatives and events through its communication channels, ensuring that members of both organizations are aware of the valuable resources available to them. This collaboration opens doors for IACTM members to participate in educational programs and training sessions offered by QAHE, further enriching their professional development.

In recognition of this partnership, QAHE will also offer IACTM members a discount on its accreditation services and resources. This initiative not only supports IACTM members in their professional journeys but also strengthens the ties between the two organizations.

The duration of this MOU is set for two years, with the possibility of renewal by mutual agreement. Both parties have expressed their commitment to maintaining the confidentiality of any proprietary or sensitive information exchanged during the collaboration, ensuring a trustworthy and secure partnership.

The signing of this MOU marks a significant milestone in the relationship between QAHE and IACTM.
