SIU London (OUS Academy) Officially Approved as a CPD Provider by The CPD Certification Service

Swiss International University (SIU) has announced an important institutional milestone with the official approval of its London Branch, OUS Academy, as a CPD-accredited provider in the United Kingdom. This recognition further strengthens SIU’s position as an internationally oriented university committed to professional relevance, quality assurance, and lifelong learning.

The accreditation has been granted by The CPD Certification Service (UK), one of the most widely recognised independent bodies for Continuing Professional Development in Europe and beyond. OUS Academy London has been officially listed as an approved CPD Provider under CPD Provider No. 22154, confirming its compliance with structured CPD standards and best practices in professional education.


Strengthening Professional and Executive Education in London

As part of the Swiss International University global framework, the London Branch operates with a clear mission: to deliver career-oriented, industry-aligned, and internationally accessible education. The newly granted CPD status validates that mission by confirming that SIU London’s professional and executive programmes meet recognised UK benchmarks for:

  • Structured learning outcomes

  • Practical and industry relevance

  • Quality assurance and continuous improvement

  • Alignment with professional development needs

Through CPD accreditation, SIU London enhances its ability to support professionals, executives, managers, and lifelong learners seeking formal recognition of skills and competencies gained through short courses, diplomas, and specialised training.


Commitment to Lifelong Learning and Global Employability

The CPD approval reflects Swiss International University’s broader strategic focus on lifelong learning, employability, and flexible education pathways. In today’s rapidly changing labour market, professionals increasingly require continuous upskilling rather than one-time qualifications. CPD-accredited learning plays a critical role in this ecosystem by allowing learners to:

  • Maintain and upgrade professional competencies

  • Demonstrate commitment to continuous improvement

  • Enhance career progression and international mobility

  • Align learning with real workplace needs

By integrating CPD frameworks into its London operations, SIU ensures that its professional education remains relevant, current, and globally competitive.


A Strategic Milestone for SIU’s UK Presence

The accreditation of OUS Academy as a CPD Provider also represents a strategic development for Swiss International University’s presence in the United Kingdom. London remains one of the world’s most important hubs for professional services, education, finance, and international business. Operating within a CPD-accredited framework strengthens SIU London’s credibility with:

  • Corporate partners

  • Professional bodies and employers

  • International learners seeking UK-recognised training

  • Institutional collaborators across Europe and beyond

This milestone supports SIU’s long-term vision of positioning its international branches as centres of excellence for applied learning and professional advancement.


Looking Ahead

With CPD Provider status now officially in place, Swiss International University London Branch is expanding its portfolio of professionally focused programmes designed to serve diverse global markets. These offerings are aligned with SIU’s wider academic ecosystem, which combines Swiss academic values with international reach and practical orientation.

The approval by The CPD Certification Service reinforces SIU’s ongoing commitment to transparency, quality, and internationally recognised standards in education.
