For TESOL and TEFL courses to have international recognition they need to be validated and accredited by an external official body.

Your success in finding a job can be hindered if your qualification is not accredited , especially if you aspire to teach in reputable schools where often the minimum requirements are a TEFL/TESOL accredited certificate.

As the leading provider of quality TEFL/TESOL courses across the world INTESOL is proud to offer you, the student, qualifications which have been accredited as being at NQF Levels 4 and 5 by NCFE, a National Awarding Body.

NCFE is regulated by Ofqual (Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator). If the accrediting body which accredits your course is UK based and is not on the Ofqual register, it is not government regulated. 

The Awarding Body for your TESOL qualification is of paramount importance, consider it carefully.
