Certification

A certification body, not just a course provider.

Every U-ACT qualification is assessed against a consistent standard — here's exactly what stands behind that standard.

Two bodies, two roles.

MAUNi and U-ACT play distinct, complementary parts in how a qualification is certified and recognised.

MAUNi Global

MAUNi — ISO Certification Body

MAUNi holds the ISO/IEC 17024-aligned Certification Body role across the network — the standard governing how a person is assessed and certified, wherever they train.

U-ACT South Africa

U-ACT — SAQA Accreditation

In South Africa, U-ACT carries accreditation recognition from SAQA (the South African Qualifications Authority) — the local statutory recognition alongside MAUNi's global certification standard.

ISO/IEC 17024 alignment

MAUNi operates as the ISO/IEC 17024-aligned Certification Body across the network, with U-ACT delivering training in South Africa through DCC. That standard exists to make sure a certification actually means something: assessment against defined competencies, evidence of practice, and ongoing CPD — not a certificate for simply completing a course.

CPD Certified

The Certified Professional Recovery Coach (CPRC) Online Training Course is CPD Certified by the CPD Certification Service (The Coach House, Ealing Green, London W5 5ER) — Member U-ACT (017908), Certificate No. 48941, issued November 2023.

CLERO accreditation

U-ACT's UBUNTU Academy Coaching Training was ratified as an Accredited (Certified) Member of the College of Lived Experience Recovery Organisations (CLERO) on 7 July 2026 — confirming its status as a genuine Lived Experience Recovery Organisation (LERO): independent, place-based, and committed to the ongoing progression and development of the people it certifies.

ICR Accredited Training Provider

The Ubuntu Academy of Coaching Training is recognised by ICR as an Accredited Training Provider — a long-standing accreditation, running continuously since 2017.
