Position HR as the driver of culture and team effectiveness.

Insights Discovery is one of the most respected behavioural tools in the world. When your HR or L&D team can deliver it directly, you gain more than a skill — you gain credibility, influence, and the ability to respond to organisational needs with confidence.

With Internal Accreditation

HR leads from the front

Your team becomes the go-to resource for leadership development, team dynamics, and communication. You shape culture — not just support it.

Long-Term Capability

An asset that compounds

Accredited practitioners can deliver sessions year after year, embedding a shared language across onboarding, leadership programmes, and team development.

What Accreditation Enables

Deliver Insights Discovery sessions internally
Order profiles at practitioner rates
Integrate into leadership programmes
Support team development at pace
Build a shared behavioural language
Elevate HR's strategic impact

Accreditation is a long-term organisational asset, not a course.

Lead culture, communication, and team development.

As an accredited practitioner, you'll have the tools and confidence to facilitate meaningful behavioural conversations across your organisation.

What HR leaders say about the programme

"Accreditation gave our HR team a credible, evidence-based tool we can use across leadership development, team building, and onboarding. It's become central to how we develop people."
Sarah, Head of L&D Global Technology Company
"David's support went well beyond the accreditation itself. He helped us think through how to position Insights Discovery internally and build momentum with our senior leaders."
Michael, HR Director Pharmaceutical Company
"Having accredited practitioners in-house means we can respond when teams need support — not weeks later, but when it matters. That's made a real difference to our credibility."
Aoife, OD Manager Financial Services

What you need to know

What does the accreditation programme involve?

The official Insights Discovery Accreditation is a 4-day programme run by Insights, available face-to-face or virtually. It covers the psychology behind the model, how to interpret profiles, and how to facilitate sessions confidently. You'll leave fully accredited with all the materials you need to deliver.

Who is this suitable for?

The programme is designed for HR, L&D, OD, and Talent professionals who want to deliver Insights Discovery within their organisation. Some facilitation or coaching experience is helpful, but not essential — the programme builds your confidence throughout.

What's the difference between virtual and face-to-face?

Both options deliver the same accreditation and materials. The virtual programme runs as a series of 90-minute interactive sessions via Zoom. Face-to-face is a 4-day residential experience. I can help you decide which format suits your team best.

What ongoing investment is required after accreditation?

The main ongoing investment is profile purchases. A standard Foundation profile typically costs €50–€90 depending on volume. There is also an annual Client Practitioner licence fee of approximately €510 per year (set by Insights). I can advise on volume arrangements and budgeting.

How do you support before, during, and after?

Before: I help you understand the options and prepare your team. During: I'm available for questions and can coordinate with Insights on your behalf. After: I provide enablement support to help you plan your rollout, build confidence, and embed Insights Discovery into your organisation's development approach.

How does Insights Discovery compare to DiSC?

Both are preference-based behavioural tools. Insights Discovery uses Jung's model and four colour energies, offering rich individual profiling with strong visual appeal. I'm a partner for both Insights and Wiley (DiSC), so I can help you understand the differences and choose what's right for your context.

Interested in bringing Insights Discovery in-house?

Whether you're exploring accreditation for yourself or considering a team programme, I'd welcome a conversation. We can discuss your organisational context, answer your questions, and explore whether this is the right fit.
