LIVP & Professional association LVV

This training includes course materials and a certificate from the National Institute for Confidential Advisors (LIVP). The course is delivered by a trainer from LIVP and is accredited by the National Association of Confidential Advisors (LVV). This accreditation ensures you receive a comprehensive education based on recognized methodologies. After completing the training, you will be equipped to professionally support and guide individuals reporting concerns and to inform and advise organizations on issues related to inappropriate behavior and integrity.

Registered LVV Confidential Advisor

The LIVP is authorized to provide the foundational training for participants from Curaçao or other Caribbean islands, as well as Suriname, fully online. While the LVV prefers to include one or several days of in-person contact, it understands that this may not always be feasible due to distance. This arrangement is a temporary exception to the accreditation regulations for the foundational training, applicable throughout the year 2024 and into Q1 2025.

Upon completion of the training, you can choose to register as an officially recognized confidential advisor in the Hobéon SKO professional register and join the LVV (National Association of Confidential Advisors). To do so, you will need to pass a national examination. Compliance Caribbean is currently working to establish itself as an examination venue in Curaçao and will keep all participants informed about developments.
