International Endorsement

ITRISA is an institutional member of the UK-headquartered International Association of Trade Training Organisations (IATTO), which prescribes and monitors members' adherence to international standards for the delivery and management of international trade training and education programmes.

IATTO provides a vital forum for the exchange of ideas and information, and recent years have seen the launch of a number of important initiatives - the most notable of which has been the development of a system for accrediting providers of international trade training and education. Achieving ‘IATTO Accredited Provider’ status is a reflection of an organisation’s high tuition standards and ability to assess participants’ international trade related competencies against agreed global standards.

ITRISA director, Rose Blatch, is Vice-Chairman of the Board of IATTO and also heads up the International Accreditation portfolio while ITRISA director, Ali Parry, is a member of IATTO's Accreditation and Certification Working Group. In 2007 ITRISA was appointed the official Agent of IATTO in South Africa.
