CONOCER certification: get ready to certify in competency standards

We prepare you for CONOCER certification in the competency standards trainers and training departments ask for most: EC0217.01, EC0301 and EC0366. We handle alignment, hands-on training, a mock assessment and the evidence portfolio, and we coordinate your assessment with an accredited Certification and Assessment Entity, which manages the official certificate.

What is CONOCER certification?

It is official recognition that a person is competent in a job function, according to a competency standard registered with CONOCER, Mexico's competency standards council. An accredited Certification and Assessment Entity assesses you, and the CONOCER-SEP certificate is valid across Mexico. Geedle does not issue it: we prepare you and support you through the assessment.

Three steps toward your certificate

Our role is to get you to the assessment with demonstrable competence and complete evidence.

Alignment to the standard

With an assessment we review which criteria of the competency standard you already meet and which you do not: performances, products and knowledge. With that we build a tailored preparation plan, without repeating what you already master.

Trainer reviewing the competency standard criteria with an advisor

Training and mock assessment

You practice the performances the standard requires with feedback from specialists, prepare the products (course outlines, assessment instruments, learning materials) and go through a complete mock assessment under conditions close to the real one, so nothing on the day is new.

Assessment with an accredited entity

We coordinate your assessment with an accredited Certification and Assessment Entity. It assesses you, issues the ruling and processes the certificate with CONOCER if you are found competent. We support you with dates, requirements and evidence delivery.

Which competency standard is right for your CONOCER certification?

It depends on what you do. If you teach courses to groups, the EC0217.01 standard, for delivering in-person training courses, is the most common starting point. If you also design the courses you teach, EC0301, for designing human capital training courses, completes the profile. If you produce online courses, EC0366, for developing online courses, fits that work. Many trainers follow that sequence over time. Before deciding, check the current version of each standard in the CONOCER registry; if you need to strengthen the basics first, see our instructional design course.

02

What does Geedle do and what does the Certification and Assessment Entity do?

The separation matters, and it is worth being clear about it from the start. Geedle prepares: assessment against the standard, hands-on training, a mock competency assessment and assembly of the evidence portfolio. The Certification and Assessment Entity, accredited by CONOCER, assesses independently, issues the ruling and manages the CONOCER-SEP certificate. Geedle is not a certifying entity and does not guarantee the outcome; we coordinate with accredited entities so your process runs in order and without surprises. To prepare in-house trainers we combine this support with our train-the-trainer program, which builds the practical foundation.

03

What evidence does a competency assessment require?

Each standard defines three types of evidence. Performances: what the assessor observes while you teach, design or develop. Products: documents you deliver, such as course outlines, assessment instruments, participant manuals or a working online course. Knowledge: what you answer in a questionnaire. We help make sure each product meets the standard's criteria and organize the portfolio so the assessor finds everything without searching. If your team produces online courses for EC0366, the work draws on our instructional design practice and on a real platform where the course actually runs for learners.

Six reasons to prepare with Geedle

You reach the assessment knowing what will be asked and with your evidence ready.

1

Assessment against the standard

From the start you know which criteria you meet and which are missing, so you prepare neither too much nor too little.

2

Reviewed evidence portfolio

Course outlines, instruments and materials checked criterion by criterion before you submit them to the assessing entity.

3

Mock assessment

You rehearse the assessment under conditions close to the real one and receive specific feedback on each performance.

4

Coordination with accredited entities

We connect you with an accredited Certification and Assessment Entity and support dates and requirements.

5

Online and in-person preparation

Theory and products on the platform, plus group-teaching practice in in-person or live online sessions.

6

Groups for companies

We prepare your entire in-house trainer team, with each person's progress visible to the training department.

Method

What the preparation process looks like

Five stages; duration depends on the standard and your prior experience.

  1. Assessment

    We review your experience, your courses and your materials against the criteria of the chosen competency standard, and define the gaps to close.

    Preparation plan
  2. Hands-on training

    Sessions to close gaps in performances, products and knowledge, with guided group-teaching practice and detailed feedback from experienced training specialists.

    Draft products
  3. Evidence portfolio

    We review each product against the standard's criteria, request adjustments where needed and organize the full portfolio for the assessment.

    Complete portfolio
  4. Mock assessment

    A full rehearsal of the competency assessment with observed performances, product review, a practice questionnaire and final adjustments before the real one.

    Final feedback
  5. Assessment with the entity

    The accredited Certification and Assessment Entity assesses you independently and, if you are found competent, manages your certificate with CONOCER.

    Entity ruling

Do your in-house trainers already hold CONOCER certification?

We prepare your team to certify in EC0217.01, EC0301 or EC0366. Request a proposal with three scope options.

01

Train-the-trainer and instructional design

If your trainers do not have the basics yet, start with train-the-trainer and the instructional design course. Both build the competencies later assessed in the EC0217.01 and EC0301 standards, issue DC-3 certificates with the STPS and leave products that work as a solid starting point for your evidence portfolio and the assessment.

02

Online course production

For EC0366 you need a real, working online course. Our instructional design team helps you build it on an e-learning platform, with structure, activities, resources and assessments that meet the standard's criteria, so the same course serves your company's training needs and also works as evidence for the official assessment.

03

Micro-credentials and teachers

Complement the certification with micro-credentials that recognize specific skills, such as online facilitation, learning assessment or using AI in class. If you are a teacher or coordinate a team of faculty, also see the teacher training we offer for schools and universities, with certificates, badges and progress follow-up by campus.
