Licensing Structure

 

Sep 26, 2021

As of September 1st, 2021, ISSTA trainer licensing is global, and all current trainers who had done IITTI training and exam satisfactorily will be automatically grandfathered.

That is, in all countries starting September, if a trainer wants her students to be able to sit for an IITTI Exam (e.g. IITTI Business 'Level 1' Exam), she must go through the ISSTA licensing process and become a "Licensed IITTI Trainer".

FAQs



What would the train-the-trainer (TTT) be like?

TTT is done via approximately 40 hours of offline or online asynchronous and synchronous training, depending on the trainee's qualification and previous professional experience. All classroom training will be conducted by authorized IITTI instructors or master instructors. At the end of the TTT program, each student needs to pass an independent ISSTA exam.

Image consultants are invited to select whoever they find most suitable among the Licensed Instructors or designated Licensed Master Instructors to train them.
