Are you a service design, aiming to train others and companies to gain high level knowledge and skills about service design? Have you been wanting to bring transparency and trust to the rapidly growing service design training market? Then it’s time to secure your official accreditation from the Service Design Network!

The Service Design Network introduced the accreditation initiative based on research carried out in 2017, showing that an astonishing 90% of the respondents had a desire for an accreditation initiative, to help establish a standard and ensure higher quality within the field.

To apply for an accreditation, service design trainers go through a self-assessment and take part in a virtual interview with the SDN Accreditation Committee. After a successful application, a two-year accreditation will be granted.
