REIKI PRACTITIONER COURSE APPRAISAL AND ACCREDITATION

DIRECTORY OF ACCREDITED REIKI PRACTITIONER COURSES

Reiki teachers can get their own practitioner or teacher courses reviewed and assessed by the UK Reiki Federation for inclusion on our Directory of Accredited Courses

UK REIKI FEDERATION PRACTITIONER COURSE ACCREDITATION

The UK Reiki Federation is able to provide a review and verification of both Reiki practitioner training courses and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses in order to include details in the UK Reiki Federation Directory of Accredited Courses

For a general overview of the standards applicable to UK Reiki Federation course approval, see pages on National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Reiki.

This service is in addition to the currently available Reiki Near Me general directory of Reiki practitioners and Reiki master teachers and is to assist our teacher members in promoting practitioner training courses, the content of which meet the recommended standards.

The following glossary may help with understanding some of the terminology used:

Accreditation

Assessment
Making judgements on whether a candidate’s work meets the assessment criteria for a competence or qualification

Assessment criteria
The standards that candidates need to meet in order to achieve success (or a given grade) in a competence or qualification

Assessor

Awarding body

Candidate
The person who is registered with an awarding body for a competence or qualification

Centre (or assessment centre)
A consortium or organisation accountable to an awarding body for the assessment arrangements leading to competences or a qualification

Competence

Internal verifier
A person appointed by the Centre to ensure consistent and accurate standards of assessment, both between assessors operating within a centre and between centres offering the same award

National qualifications framework

Verification
