Introduction

To get started, please review the information on this page and Apply for Membership.

At LRQA, we know that successful client outcomes start with expert guidance. That’s why our Consultant Network connects skilled professionals like you, with organisations seeking support to implement and maintain international management systems.

Management system certification is more than a milestone – it’s a strategic advantage. It builds trust, strengthens reputation, and opens doors to new markets. But for many organisations, navigating the path to certification can be complex and resource-intensive. That’s where your expertise makes the difference.

As a member of the LRQA Consultant Network, you’ll join a trusted group of professionals with proven experience across a wide range of sectors and standards. We can match your expertise with businesses that need support to ensure the right fit in terms of industry, location, and system requirements.

How does it work?

Simply register to join the LRQA Consultant Network. As a member of the network, you can benefit from discounts from any public training course, updates on new and existing standards and be invited to networking opportunities and webinars. We will also refer your company contact details to inquiring clients looking for management systems consultancy.

To help potential and existing clients implement new systems, we will forward details of consultants who fit their criteria in terms of sector and standard experience. You can easily become a member of our Consultant Network by referring clients to us. To gain the benefits of membership, you will need to refer at least one organisation to us each year.

What does it cost to become a member?

Nothing, our Consultant Network is a free resource for independent management systems consultants.

What benefits will members receive?

LRQA's Registered Consultant status logo 

All fully registered members of the Consultant Network have the option to receive a logo featuring a unique identifier number for use on their letterhead, website and other marketing collateral. LRQA is not permitted by our regulators to recommend the services of any specific consultant, and membership does not imply that LRQA represents, recommends or certify these consultants in anyway.

However, this logo enables organisations looking for a consultant to determine whether they have the right skills and knowledge to successfully implement and support them with their international management system standards.

Referral of contact details    

Depending on specialism, sector experience and location, your consultancy's contact details are passed to organisations looking for help and support with their management system.

15 % Classroom Training discount for You and Your Clients 

We understand that as a consultant you may want to enhance your management systems knowledge. As a member of our Consultant Network you will receive 15% off any LRQA classroom and virtual classroom courses (booking code required).

When helping clients with their management systems, it may be necessary to recommend attending a training course. As a member of our Consultant Network, you and your clients are eligible to receive a 15% discount from any LRQA public training course (booking code required).

Free access to webinars

We recognise that it is not always possible for you to attend our networking events, so we can provide you with access to our webinar updates on specific standard, certification or service modifications.

Networking events 

To help you keep up-to-date with new & existing standards, we provide updates on current certification issues that may affect you and your clients and also provide you with an opportunity to network with your peers. 

Readily available standards information 

We are constantly producing value-added content on the standard revisions and new standard & services.  Being a member of our Consultant Network enables you to have access to white papers and guidance documents via our website.

Personal point of contact 

During business hours, we want to make it easy for you to speak directly to us whenever you need to. Having a personal point of contact enables you to have direct access to a member of our sales team who will be able to help with any queries or client enquiries.

Registered consultants

LRQA is not permitted by our regulators to recommend the services of any specific consultant. However, we understand that you want to have confidence in the consultant you have chosen to help and support you with your management systems.  We therefore issue all fully registered members of the Consultant Network with a logo for those consultants who have successfully implemented certified management systems. 

*The Registered Consultant status logo does not and should not be used by the consultant to infer they are certified and/or recommended by LRQA. This logo may only be used by the consultant for as long as they remain a member of the LRQA Consultant Network.
