We offer two paths for alumni of the Partnership Brokers Training: Advanced Skills for partnership brokering, a 5-day course designed to build further confidence and competence in managing partnership brokering interventions, and the Accreditation programme, a 4-month distance learning course with a mentor focusing on reflective practice. To explore which option would best suit your learning needs please get in touch.

Accreditation

Formal professional accreditation awarded by PBA is leading to a post-nominal of ‘APB’ – Accredited Partnership Broker. After completing a 3-month period of mentored professional practice, candidates submit written evidence of their learning journey, which will be assessed by their mentor and external examiners. Accreditation is a key element in our move towards creating the new profession of ‘partnership broker’, and it’s our cornerstone to set and maintain high standards in this field. For more information please download the flyer or contact us – apply now.

“Prior to the training I had been trying to broker a strategic partnership for nearly two years… During my PBA Accreditation, I employed the concepts and tools of partnership brokering … and within weeks the partnership arrangement was formalised.”
