Social Value Courses
Around the world, Social Value Networks offer training on the Social Value Principles, how their use improves decision-making, and enables impact management.
Our flagship courses Social Value & SROI: The Foundations and Social Value & SROI Training for Practitioners are designed to launch participants on the Social Value International Practitioner Pathway and prepare all for the Level 1 Practitioner Exam and Level 2 Practitioner Accreditation.
SVC is soon making available SVI’s full training program to embed impact into organizational management. Please be in touch for more information.
The Social Value Principles are increasingly embedded within other impact - oriented processes such as the UNDP Impact Standards - a planning and implementation for enterprise and the Capitals Coalition Protocols for impact management and reporting. They are a core reference for Common Approach Data Impact Standards and Impact Frontiers Reporting Norms.
A comparative overview of all courses can be found here. Contact the Secretariat for any & all questions - welcome!
“Social Value defines and prioritizes what is valuable to a diversity of stakeholders, many of which, historically, have been silenced or ignored.”

Practitioner Status Renewals
As a Social Value Associate, you’ve shown you understand the principles that underpin credible impact measurement, and that you can recognise good practice when you see it.
That makes you a trusted voice in the room, whether you’re shaping a community investment strategy, commissioning an evaluation, or asking the right questions of a report.
Keeping your status current shows your knowledge is fresh, your commitment is ongoing, and your foundation is ready to build on.
Benefit statements
Informed judgement. Your status confirms a solid grasp of the Social Value Principles, so you can assess the quality of impact claims with confidence.
A credible advocate. Associate status helps people know enough about the SVI Framework and its benefits to advocate for applying the Principles, inside your organisation and beyond.
Better conversations with clients and partners. You can scope, commission, and challenge social value work from a position of understanding.
A clear next step. Associates can progress to become Level 2 Accredited Practitioners or Level 3 Advanced Practitioners. Current Level 1 status keeps that pathway open.
Part of the community. SVI extends guidance and support to Associates, including access to SVI events and networking opportunities.
