AAHA Certification

    Unlike "schools" of graphology that offer a diploma and call it certification, the American Association of Handwriting Analysts (AAHA) offers you the opportunity to be tested for knowledge and application of your graphology skills by us, an independent organization.  
    This is an esteemed level of professional certification with the full weight of this organization behind you.
    AAHA Accreditation says that we know you are a skilled, ethical and  professional graphologist.
The accreditation process is completed in two parts:  
  • Associate Level (basic knowledge testing), and the
  • Certification Examination (practical applications of your skills as a graphologist.)

Successful completion both parts of this exam bestows the highest honor and title of "Accredited Certified Member."  An AAHA Certified Member is considered to be a qualified professional graphologist.
​
Qualifications for Examination:

1.  The candidate must be an Affiliate Member of AAHA.  (This means the potential candidate must applied for membership, been approved, and has received their Affiliate Membership packet.)
2.  A minimum of two years of independent study, or a minimum of one year of structured study through a graphology school is required before you may request the Associate level examination.  
3.  Apply for Examination by contacting our AAHA Accreditation Chair to request this (use the button below.)
