Map Your Courses

RPS is a service by IQN that recognises the academic and professional programmes delivered by other institutions. If your course matches the content and level of an IQN qualification, it can be officially recognised. Your learners can then receive IQN certification without sitting any extra exam.

Any of the following can apply:

• Universities 
• Colleges
• Professional Institutes
• Training providers
• Awarding organisations

If you offer a programme in HR, Marketing, Finance, Project Management, Strategic Management, or Supply Chain — and it matches IQN’s curriculum — you may be eligible.

• Learners receive IQN diplomas and certifications without needing to take a separate IQN exam.
• Institutions gain global recognition for their existing programmes.

Yes. Institutes do not necessarily need to change their programmes. IQN will review and benchmark the programme content and assessments against our qualification standards. If there is a strong match, the programme can be recognised directly.

Yes. If you are a registered IQN centre offering in-house programmes that follow IQN’s curriculum in areas like HR, Marketing, Finance, Supply Chain, Project Management or Strategy, you can apply for approval under the RPS.

No. Approval is granted for one year, subject to renewal. Institutions must maintain quality and provide updated programme information when required.

Yes, there is an annual recognition fee. However, if you claim minimum 20 IQN certificates for your learners in a calendar year, the annual fee will be fully waived. 

You will be asked to submit:

• Programme syllabus or course outline (optional if you are embedding IQN syllabus)
• Sample assessment materials (optional if you are embedding IQN syllabus)
• Information about faculty or trainers
• Information about the institute (local approval, accreditation/ recognition, governance, quality assurance procedures, examination procedures, etc.)
