Why certification makes a difference
Certified training offers assurance to those who learn and to those who invest in training their teams: assessed quality, official recognition and valid certificates.
Recognised quality
DGERT certification confirms that the training provider meets a quality framework in the design, organisation, delivery and assessment of training.
Official certificates
Training is registered on SIGO, the Portuguese system for managing training provision, and certificates are issued through that platform.
Counts towards the 40 annual hours
The Portuguese Labour Code entitles every employee to 40 hours of continuing training a year, which can be delivered by a certified training provider.
Professional development
Documented and recognised skills that follow each trainee throughout their career.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about our training
What is a DGERT-certified training provider?
It is an organisation whose training activity has been assessed and recognised by the Directorate-General for Employment and Labour Relations (DGERT), the Portuguese public body responsible for this certification, for meeting a quality framework in the design, organisation, delivery and assessment of training. CONPLAN is a DGERT-certified training provider.
Will I receive a certificate at the end of the course?
Yes. Trainees who meet each course's attendance and assessment requirements receive a vocational training certificate, issued through SIGO, the official Portuguese platform for registering training.
Does the training count towards the 40 annual hours of continuing training?
The Portuguese Labour Code entitles every employee to 40 hours of continuing training a year, which can be delivered by a certified training provider. Our training can therefore count towards that total. If you have any questions about your situation, please get in touch.
What training formats are available?
We offer in-person, online or blended training, which combines face-to-face sessions with remote sessions. The format of each course is stated in its programme.
Is online and blended training also certified?
Yes. Online and blended courses follow the same organisation, registration and certification rules as in-person training.
Do you offer tailored training for companies and organisations?
Yes. We design training programmes around each team's needs, in content, duration and format.
Where does in-person training take place?
