Registered Education Partners
Quality Framework for MBOK®-Aligned Education Partners
The GMI Registered Education Partner program gives qualified education providers a controlled framework for MBOK®-aligned mentoring education, approved continuing education, and future certification preparation.
Founding Provider Participation
Help Shape the REP Framework Before Broader Launch
GMI is inviting qualified education providers to help test the practical requirements behind MBOK®-aligned education, provider review, authorized claims, and continuing education documentation.
Review Draft RequirementsEvaluate proposed provider expectations, documentation needs, and approval criteria.
Map Sample CurriculaTest how courses align to MBOK® principles, ethics, competencies, and learning outcomes.
Test Claims LanguageConfirm how providers may describe REP status, CEUs, and MBOK® alignment responsibly.
Inform Quality EvidenceHelp define renewal inputs, learner evidence, delivery review, and quality monitoring.
Why Become a REP
Join the Education Network Behind Standards-Based Mentoring
A global mentoring standard needs qualified education partners who can translate MBOK® into practical learning experiences. REP authorization helps providers offer credible mentoring education while protecting the integrity of GMI-aligned claims.
For providers, the opportunity is to participate in an emerging standards ecosystem for mentoring education, continuing development, and future certification preparation.
Signal that mentoring education is aligned to a developing standards body, not only an internal training approach.
Support universities, employers, and public-sector partners that need clearer evidence of education quality.
Prepare offerings for CEU approval, certification preparation, renewal expectations, and future learner pathways where authorized.
Use GMI, MBOK®, REP, CEU, and certification language within reviewed and approved boundaries.
