Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions we are asked most often before a project begins.
Does Arman Institute issue the certificates itself?
No. We are a brokerage — neither a training school nor an issuing body. We prepare and manage your ISO or professional-competency file, and issuance is carried out by accredited international bodies. The certificate is then permanently verifiable in the registry on this website.
How long does the certification process take?
It depends on the standard, the size of your organisation and how complete your documentation is. After an initial review of your file we give you a precise, stage-by-stage schedule. Contact us for an estimate on your own case.
How can I confirm a certificate is genuine?
Every certificate carries a tracking code printed on the document itself. Enter that code in the certificate registry to see its details and validity status. To protect holders' privacy the full list is not public, so verification is by tracking code only.
What is the difference between an ISO certificate and a professional-competency certificate?
An ISO certificate belongs to an ORGANISATION and shows its management systems conform to a given standard. A professional-competency certificate belongs to an INDIVIDUAL and evidences their ability in a trade or profession. They are separate routes, each with its own division on this site.
What does the Marketing & Entrepreneurship Chamber do for me?
It focuses on taking Iranian businesses into the Gulf and Central Asian markets — from market study and finding a trading partner through to company registration and legal support. The full cycle and the membership models are set out on that division's own page.
What happens when my certificate expires?
Certificates carry a validity date. Once it passes, verification reports the status as EXPIRED and the document is no longer accepted for an employer or a tender. Contact us before that date to renew.
