Yoga Certification Board, established by Ministry of Ayush, Government

of India, is the only Board which has been set up by any Government for
certification in the field of Yoga. The YCB certifies Yoga professionals under

various levels and category so that the Yoga Professionals can select the level
and category as per their skills and competences. The competences range

from basic yoga protocol to Yoga master, from assistant Yoga therapist to
Yoga Therapy Consultant. The certification helps in promoting Yoga as career

skill which till date is an unorganised career option.
YCB is also accreditating Yoga Institutions/centres based on their years

of existence, scale of operation and experience in the field of Yoga. This will
ensure that the Yoga institution will get recognition for their contribution

towards Yoga. The Institutions are accreditated under 4 levels. This will help
in bringing standards in teaching and practice of Yoga among various Institutions

without interfering in their delivery system. Synchronisation of Yoga legacy
and certificate will produce trained and qualified Yoga Professional.
