Choosing the International Tarot Foundation for your Tarot Certification means embarking on a structured and respected learning journey with an accredited, worldwide organisation. Our certification provides both students and future clients with confidence, knowing your work is grounded in professionalism, integrity, and clear ethical standards.
Our diverse range of Tarot courses is carefully designed to equip students with confident, accurate reading skills alongside a broad and well-rounded foundation of Tarot knowledge.
Beyond card interpretation, certification with us demonstrates a commitment to ethical practice, responsible client care, and professional boundaries — qualities that reassure clients and distinguish you as a trusted Tarot reader.
By completing your certification, you gain more than a qualification: you develop the clarity, structure, and confidence needed to read for others with insight, responsibility, and credibility in real-world settings.
The Tarot Readers Certification is designed for students who value a clear, structured pathway of study, supported by experienced mentors at every stage of their learning journey. While the programme follows a carefully guided structure, it is also fully flexible, allowing students to study at their own pace and integrate learning naturally into their lives.
There is no time limit for completing the Certification. You are welcome to take breaks whenever needed, with the reassurance that support and guidance will be waiting for you when you are ready to return.
Our focus is on developing genuine reading ability, not simply completing coursework. Although there is no formal written exam, students undertake regular reading assessments, supported by mentor feedback and self-evaluation. These assessments ensure that each student reaches a clear, professional standard of Tarot reading with confidence and integrity.
The Certification consists of seven in-depth courses, alongside reading assessments and reflective development. This is not a process of “getting through” material; rather, it is a journey of skill-building, insight, and practical experience. Working closely with a mentor allows students to deepen their understanding and develop their reading style with clarity and confidence.
Upon completion of the Certification, students will have achieved a highly skilled and confident level of Tarot reading, suitable for professional or advanced personal practice. Supporting students to reach this level is at the heart of what we do — and something we are particularly known for.
Courses begin at a Foundation level and progress into more advanced study, always with ongoing support. Beginners are warmly welcomed and nurtured step by step toward a high level of achievement throughout the Certification. For those who already read Tarot, the programme offers opportunities to refine skills, expand knowledge, and deepen professional confidence.
We also offer a tailored pathway for experienced readers who wish to refresh their skills or advance their studies. A reading assessment can allow direct entry into appropriate correspondence courses. Please contact us for information on assessment options and pricing.
As we are accredited with the International Institute of Complimentary Therapists, certified students are eligible to apply for IICT membership, which includes access to public liability insurance — an important step for those offering professional readings.
Upon successful completion, you will receive:
A digital PDF Certificate
A printed Certificate sent to you
Downloadable Certified Reader badges to display on your website or professional platforms, clearly signalling your qualification and ethical standing to clients
We look forward to supporting you on your Tarot Certification journey.
