Dear Experts,
I am an entrepreneur and am in the process of starting a teacher training program for pre school. It will be a 6 - 8 months certificate program. I need to know if by Indian law, I need to mandatorily get any affiliation or accreditations.
From what I understand according to my research if other players in the industry, you do not require any accreditation for a teacher training program. You can provide your institute certificates.
Please validate this point.
Secondly, to increase the value and recognition of my program, I am looking at memberships of international Montessori society and organizations like ISTD. Also I came across MSTS which provides affiliation for IT courses and vocational courses. Please advise if this will help recognise my certificate.

Thanks in advance. Looking for reply at the earliest.

It would be more appropriate and advisable to engage a full time lawyer for such commercial activity.

Entrepreneur? Education is not a business, but a service.

Consult the education department of your district / state and university having jurisdiction at the area. No certificate / diploma can be given without proper affiliation / authority.
