The London Chamber of Commerce and Industry International Qualifications (LCCI) is proud to have a long-standing history dating back to 1881.

As of 1st April 2005, the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry Examinations Board will be known as London Chamber of Commerce and Industry International Qualifications.

This UK organization will however, still be known around the world by its familiar abbreviation “LCCI”. The new brand name and logo strengthens LCCI’s reputation and image as one of the world’s top awarding bodies. Both students and working adults are discovering the benefits that LCCI qualifications bring to their academic studies as well as careers.

To further enhance the qualification that LCCI candidates obtain, LCCI will also be launching a new design for its certificates and diplomas. The new design incorporates the very latest security mechanisms to deter counterfeit reproductions. Its advanced security features include using micro-text, Guilloche fine-line patterning, laserguard paper, 3D text, thermochromic ink as well as a hologram on the certificates.

The Managing Director of LCCI Asia, Sean Leslie welcomed the new look for LCCI saying “It is timely as 2005 and 2006 promise to be eventful for LCCI with the launching of more new qualifications as well as LCCI's increased presence in new markets."

LCCI growth has been driven by the need for proven skills and competence for employment. As the skills required of job markets grew it was essential for employers to know that the employees had the ability to do the job well.

LCCI awards were created to satisfy that need for benchmarking standards of performance. In the UK, our examinations are accreditated by Qualifications and Curriculums Authority (QCA), a regularoty non-departmental public body sponsored by Department for Education and Skills (DfES). We are one of the largest providers of business qualifications around the world, offering examinations in 125 countries.
