The Household Standard UAE · 2026
01
Programme
Six modules · one certification

The programme,
module by module.

Each module is a craft in its own right. Taught in person, observed on the day, and certified. Take one. Take all six. The standard is the same either way.

i

The content is yours

Every module is built around your household, your rules, your rhythm, your table. Nothing is imposed.

ii

The standard is Edgemont's

How the work is assessed, what good looks like, where consistency is held. That is ours, and it does not move.

iii

The certification is hers

What the practitioner earns is recognised, dated, and hers to keep. It travels with her, household to household.

02
Modules
The six modules

Each one a craft.

Every module runs three hours, in person, and produces real artefacts the same day. Documents the household keeps. The same documents she is assessed on.

Individual module dates released in August. The Summer Intensive runs two sessions this season; dates below.

Assessment

How the standard is assessed.

The certification is earned in the room, not tested on paper. There is no written exam. Across the six modules, the practitioner builds the real artefacts for your family, and is observed and scored as they do it. Observed, not examined.

The method is borrowed from how clinical skills are assessed in medicine: structured, marked against a defined checklist, and scored in the moment. The checklist is the same for every practitioner, in every household, which is what lets the certificate mean the same thing from one home to the next.

Some steps are not optional. Consent, privacy, and safeguarding are marked critical. A practitioner can do everything else well and still be asked to revisit one of these before she is certified. Not everyone who begins is certified on the day, and that is rather the point.

Credential
What she earns

A credential, in her name.

Every Edgemont certification is dated, recorded, and hers to keep. It names the modules she has been assessed against, the band she earned, and the standard it was awarded under. A portable record that travels with her, household to household.

Standard
The Edgemont Standard

What the certificate carries.

i

Assessed in the room

Certification is earned through observed behavioural assessment. The practitioner demonstrates the standard, rather than sitting a written test.

ii

Awarded on the day

There is no waiting. The certification, and the artefacts produced during the module, are hers to take home the same day.

iii

Stackable

Each module certifies on its own. Six together form the full Edgemont certification. A record that travels with the practitioner.
