IMI Certification
The International Medication Institute (IMI) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting global transparency and setting standards in the field of mediation.
IMI’s quality standards are established and maintained by IMI’s Independent Standards Commission (ISC). These standards are applied in practice by service provider organizations that are approved by the ISC to run the “Qualifying Assessment Programs” (QAP). QAPs then assess and qualify experienced and competent mediations for IMI Certification.
Enlee is currently seeking approval from IMI for QAP. Our goal is to provide qualified and competent mediators around the world an accessible IMI certification process free of cost. Please check back regularly for updates.
