AZAV accreditation and quality management

ICF - Interkulturelles Centrum Freiburg is an approved institution according to the law on employment promotion (AZAV)

ICF is certified according to the Accreditation and Admission Ordinance on Employment Promotion (AZAV). The certification according to AZAV includes all requirements for a comprehensive quality management system for further vocational training. It is a prerequisite for an educational institution to be recognized by the so-called expert bodies and thus by the employment agency. The AZAV quality audit covers the organization, the processes, the personnel and all criteria relevant to the quality of the education. Both the educational institutions themselves and the qualification programmes are checked, approved and regularly monitored. ICF fulfils all these criteria and has been certified as a provider of further professional qualifications according to AZAV since September 2019 by the expert body SicZert GmbH.
