TRUST & TRANSPARENCY

Editorial policy

Cognicert publishes accurate, useful and clearly attributed information about professional training, certification, assurance and organisational competence.

Standards we follow

News and human-authored insight content is prepared from identifiable sources and reviewed before publication. Commercial services, opinions and official company announcements are labelled by context. We do not publish paid editorial endorsements as independent reporting.

Authors and review

Each article identifies its author or responsible organisation and its publication date. Where specialist review is appropriate, the reviewer's role is stated. AI-assisted Insights posts are explicitly labelled and may be published by an automated workflow without individual human pre-publication review; they are not presented as independently researched reports.

Sources, links and updates

We link to relevant course information and primary sources where those links help readers verify a claim. Material changes update the modified date; minor typographical corrections may not.

Corrections

If we identify a material error, we correct it promptly and add a visible correction note when the change affects the meaning of the article. Concerns can be sent through our contact page.

Independence and responsible use

Automated posts cover practical standards-based commentary, not original surveys, country rankings or compliance indexes. Those research formats require a documented data set, methodology and editorial review before publication. Automated checks cannot guarantee accuracy; Cognicert remains responsible for corrections. Certification decisions remain subject to the applicable impartial processes and are not determined by editorial content.
