Open badge Practice

Training in the multi-professional practice of NPI


NPI are prevention, care, and autonomy support protocols that must be personalized and contextualized. Their implementation requires specific skills. The NPIS Training Department has developed the Practice Core, composed of three levels: knowledge, skills, and interpersonal skills, to improve the multi-professional practice of NPI. The acquisition of this knowledge and skills is certified by an international certificate called Open Badge Practice. It is obtained after completing initial or continuing training and passing an online questionnaire. Equivalency can be obtained based on documentation. It guarantees the quality of NPI implementation in a professional healthcare context and provides a guarantee of security for employers.
