IABFM believe that recognition is simply about whether the certification attained following the rigorous criteria set, intensive case studies and the examination enables the delegate to show that they have demonstrated the skills required to become certified and can now implement these skills in a productive and effective manner for themselves and their employers. Many of the top businesses and governmental organizations regularly send delegates to ACPOP™ approved training. To ACPOP™ this is what recognition is about. At the corporate level, the ACPOP™ courses have been developed as the result of active discussions with companies and organizations involved in both small and large projects in Europe, Asia Pacific, Africa and the Middle East.

ACPOP™ courses are now the defacto in-house training courses for many international companies and government organisations.
