Certification is aimed at validating the performance of delegates at the BBDP. Certificates are awarded to participants who have met set criteria.
Accreditation on the other hand is designed to endorse individuals and bodies to organise and deliver BBDP. In general the various levels and types of certification and accreditation are:
| Certified Church/Ministry Worker (CCMW) | Anyone who has successfully completed the BBDP workers training |
| Certified BBDP Instructor (CBI) | Anyone who has completed the CCMW and CBI trainings. They will be trained to deliver BBDP courses, with options to specialize in specific subject areas. |
| Accredited BBDP Associate (ABA) | Delegates who have completed CCMW and CBI trainings, plus some practical training on organization development and management of the BBDP. They will be licensed to plan and organize BBDP programmes for churches. |
| Accredited BBDP Centers (ABC) | This will normally be given to other organizations e.g. churches that want to be running the programme by themselves (see not 2 below). |
Notes:
- Certification may involve written and oral interviews.
- Accreditation may involve, Facility Inspection and require at least 2 or more Certified BBDP Instructors.
