The required audit of the educational programs is carried out in name of ANVR by the independent certification institution Hobéon (www.hobeon.nl/english).  

Educational institutions that hold an ANVR certification offer programs educating to one of the defined levels in the formal competence profile for tour managers (link to Dutch file: http://leden.anvr.nl/_upload/NewsFiles/101209_BCP_Tourmanager_1_0-2431.pdf).
 
ANVR distinguishes between three different levels of educational programs:
