Recognized Consultants Program
for GLOBAL S.L.P standards

What can a Registered Trainer do for you?

As a producer, attending a training course provided by a Registered Trainer is one of the best ways of facilitating certification or certification renewal.

Recognized Consultants are trained in a specific scope or product category of the Integrated Farm Management (IFM) standard, and can break it down into comprehensible, practical steps. By the end of the course participants can expect to have a good understanding of how the GLOBAL S.L.P. certification system works as well as the requirements for achieving GLOBAL S.L.P. certification.

Even if you are already GLOBAL S.L.P. certified, attending a course can prepare you for future IFM standard updates. It also provides a great opportunity to learn more about the system behind the certification standard.

Recognized Consultants may also offer consultancy and other services to producers. Please contact your Recognized Consultant of choice to find out more about the services they offer.

Why choose a Recognized Consultant?

By selecting a Recognized Consultant you can ensure that any information received is correct and up to date. All Registered Trainers are vetted by GLOBAL S.L.P. and must attend an Integrated Farm Management course provided by GLOBAL S.L.P. They must also successfully pass the subsequent exam with a score of at least 80%.

You may be contacted by consultants or trainers offering unsolicited assistance with GLOBAL S.L.P. standards. We recommend that you check that they are officially registered as Recognized Consultants to avoid receiving outdated or incorrect knowledge.
