The IEDTA certifies training programs, teachers, and supervisors. The organization does not itself offer any training or supervision.

The IEDTA has certification criteria for EDT core training programs, teachers, and supervisors. When trainees complete certified core  training programs, they receive certificates stating that they have successfully completed an IEDTA-certified training program.

Certified teachers must meet additional criteria to become certified supervisors. For this reason, “certified teacher-supervisor” is sometimes used as a synonym for “certified supervisor.” At this time, there is no certification of training programs for teachers and supervisors.

For more information, please follow the links below. For information beyond that, or to apply for training program certification, please contact the Education Committee.

Because certification is solely based on satisfying criteria about the structure of the program, the IEDTA is not able to assess or vouch for the quality of training and supervision provided. We certify training programs, teachers, and supervisors based on the information we are provided. We are not able to independently verify most of this information, and cannot be responsible for certification granted based on inaccurate information. If you have concerns about the validity of any IEDTA-certified training, teacher, or supervisor, please contact the Education Committee.
