Join the Global Bench of Trusted Neutrals.
At THE NEUTRALS, certification is not academic - it is professional recognition of your standing, credibility, and ethics as a neutral. It is earned through a simple, structured evaluation, not through courses or study.
Every Certified Neutral represents independence, integrity, and excellence in dispute prevention and resolution.
Appointments are made through the Independent Certification Board after reviewing your credentials and professional background — a process typically completed within 5–7 working days.
Once approved, you are formally designated as a Certified Neutral – THE-NEUTRALS™ and appointed to the appropriate sectoral bench within your country.
A Professional Journey of Recognition
Certification at THE NEUTRALS follows a clear pathway:
Entry → Evaluation → Certification → Leadership
Certified Neutrals may also contribute as:
- Ethics Council Members – upholding independence and neutrality standards.
- Practice Group Leaders – leading sector-specific panels.
- Academy Mentors – guiding and shaping the next generation of neutrals.
