Our best practice assurance accreditations are supported by the key pillars of:

Assurance for the digital age – we reinvented the global standard for professional assurance accreditation and certified training, which is specifically designed for assurance reviewers and organisations in the modern digital economy.
Proving assurance knowledge and skills – our best practice accreditation provides employers, delivery and service organisations, assurance units and governments, with the confidence that GDA accredited assurance professionals have a proven knowledge, verified skills and up to date knowledge of assurance, to ensure more effective delivery of Gateway Assurance for their programs and projects.
Real-world training scenarios – our assurance accreditation training programs have been developed by some of Australia’s leading assurance professional’s, delivering a highly effective ‘virtual classroom’ training and accreditation experience.
Eliminate expensive classroom training – our 100% online, interactive, scenario based training and digital accreditations, are delivered via our proprietary digital learning and credentialing management platform. This allows assurance professionals to gain world-wide assurance accreditation at a ‘pace and time‘ that suits busy industry and public sector professionals.
CPD re-accreditation program – to maintain best practice, ensure piece-of-mind for organisations, and ensure the highest levels of ongoing assurance professionalism, GDA assurance accreditations (and verifiable digital badges) must be re-accredited annually via our CPD program.
Assurance best practice – our best practice training courses and assurance accreditations, are empowered and validated against leading agile, portfolio, program and project management best practice methodologies and standards. This is achieved by collaboratively working with industry leading public and private sector assurance professionals and peak industry bodies.
