Institutional relationships

Accreditations, Memberships, Registrations and Academic Partnerships

The organisations shown on this page have different relationships with London College of Teachers. The category of each relationship matters, so LCT does not present every logo as the same type of accreditation.

Is every organisation shown by LCT an accreditor?

No. LCT has different types of institutional relationships, including a UK provider registration, academic partnerships, professional memberships, accreditation or CPD relationships, certificate-verification arrangements and other associations. Learners should read the description under each organisation rather than treating every logo as equivalent.

Academic partnership

Paris University of International Education

Paris University of International Education

Selected Diploma and PG Diploma programmes are presented by LCT as being offered in academic partnership with Paris University of International Education (PUIE). Where the programme page states it, learners receive a University Certificate Issued Jointly. Availability varies by programme and level.

UK provider registration

UK Register of Learning Providers

London College of Teachers Limited uses UKPRN 10096558. A UKPRN is an identifier on the UK Register of Learning Providers. It is useful for institutional verification and data sharing, but the registration itself should not be described as course accreditation or a guarantee of recognition.

CPD relationship

The CPD Group

The CPD Group

LCT lists The CPD Group among its professional relationships. CPD accreditation relates to continuing professional development provision and should be read in the context of the specific accredited provider/activity scope.

Professional membership

Chartered College of Teaching

Chartered College of Teaching

LCT lists a professional relationship with the Chartered College of Teaching. Professional membership is distinct from government regulation, degree-awarding powers or blanket accreditation of every course.

TEFL verification / association

International TEFL Canada

International TEFL Canada

LCT lists International TEFL Canada in connection with TEFL professional relationships and certificate verification. Learners should check the certification section of the specific TEFL programme for the current arrangement.

Professional association

Quality Council of India

Quality Council of India

LCT has historically published its QCI membership information as part of its institutional associations. Membership of a professional or quality organisation is different from statutory recognition of an education qualification.

English language testing relationship

Skills for English

Skills for English

LCT lists Skills for English among its institutional partners and associates. The testing organisation's own eligibility and UKVI requirements apply independently of LCT course certification.

Montessori association

Montessori Europe

Montessori Europe

LCT lists Montessori Europe among its professional relationships. Learners comparing Montessori pathways should review the current course page and ask admissions which relationships apply to their chosen level.

How to interpret institutional claims

Accreditation, membership, registration, partnership and certificate verification are not interchangeable terms. Recognition of a qualification for employment, teacher licensing, immigration or further study can depend on the country, employer, institution and programme. LCT therefore provides programme-specific certification information and a separate institutional verification page.
