UniMFA is an educational institution that takes the initiative to raise the standards of the service market and create a professional environment within the business community.
We have taken on the responsibility of standardizing quality in the fields of education and consulting in European countries.
One such initiative is the introduction of European certification for professional consultants.
The procedure for assessing and confirming the qualifications of professional consultants is conducted in accordance with generally accepted European standards in consulting.
The certification is carried out by the independent educational organization “UniMFA”. The process assesses the consultant’s knowledge, skills, experience, and ethical standards in a specific field: business consulting, management, marketing, finance, etc.
The certification process
When applying for certification, the consultant must provide the following documents:
- A completed application form.
- A professional resume detailing education and professional experience related to the field of consulting.
- A professional or marketing platform showcasing the consultant’s professional activities (website, LinkedIn profile, business profile on social media, or other forms of marketing presentation).
- A list of products offered by the consultant, with a clear description and price or pricing method.
- Client recommendations. Testimonials may be submitted as recommendations and will be verified by the Certification Board.
- Templates of contracts used between the consultant and the client, including a confidentiality clause.
- An example of a commercial proposal provided to a potential client, describing the service offered.
The Certification Board will review the application within 30 days of submission. If questions arise, the Board will contact the consultant to request additional information or clarify any discrepancies.
The decision is made by the Certification Board based on an assessment of all submitted documents and available information about the consultant’s activities within the European Union.
The decision of the Certification Board is final and cannot be appealed.
A new application for certification may be submitted no earlier than 12 months after receiving a rejection decision.
The European Certificate for Professional Consultants
The certificate is issued upon successful completion of the certification process and the signing of the Code of Ethics for Professional Consultants.
UniMFA maintains a public list of certified professional consultants and publishes information about them on its web pages.
