Accreditation

Why is it better to get the knowledge you need to take the exam in an accredited course?

One of the most important goals of HTB is to enable domestic professionals to receive the highest quality ISTQB-guaranteed education. This will help to successfully pass the internationally recognized ISTQB exams and to cope anywhere in the world with the knowledge gained.

HTB assists the certification of applicants by accrediting well-trained educational providers and their courses that support the objectives of ISTQB software testing.

Training providers may use the HTB and ISTQB logos and identify themselves as accredited service providers, as well as their courses as accredited courses. HTB registers and publishes an up-to-date list of accredited Training Providers and accredited courses.
