Recognition of other instructor licences (Czech and foreign)
APUL’s Methodical Commission decides entry and recognition of prior qualifications from other accredited bodies and ISIA member associations. Recognition is not automatic: candidates must apply in writing, may need an online test and APUL membership, and usually complete APUL courses unless the commission grants an exception.
