The IBSTPI® Standards Sets (Competencies and Performance Statements), whether in English or another language, are covered by copyright laws and intellectual property standards. Therefore, should you wish to share and/or distribute the Standards with anyone, in any format (digital, paper copies, etc.), you must seek permission from IBSTPI® to do so.
IBSTPI® Standards Sets, containing the associated competencies and performance statements, are not to be published in any form, on any public, private, or internal websites that can be accessed by any member of the public, inside or outside of your organization, without prior explicit permission from IBSTPI®.
Purchasing or accessing this personal set of IBSTPI® Standards Sets (Competencies and Performance Statements) does not constitute permission to adopt them across your organization, with others you are associated with, or with your own clients.
You may only use this IBSTPI® Standards Set for your own personal use. This does NOT allow you to post the Standards Set, or any part of it, in venues where others can access or read the stated standards, competencies, or performance statements.
ALL non-personal, external uses require the user (purchaser of this IBSTPI® Standards Set) to register with IBSTPI® as a user and negotiate permission to copy, distribute, post, etc. prior to the release of any information within this IBSTPI® Standards Set. This negotiation may include determining a royalty agreement.
We welcome authors, researchers, and learners to make reference to, or use, IBSTPI® Competencies, and Standards Sets (Competencies + Performance Statements) in their work. Several research papers, professional presentations, theses, and dissertations have been written about the ibstpi® standards, some using, with permission, IBSTPI® competencies and performance statements as instrumentation for research.
We acknowledge that ongoing research by other scholars is necessary to continue the discourse that validates as well as challenges the characterization of professional practice. General references to IBSTPI® works (e.g., books, Standards Sets, etc.) should be made in the appropriate citation format (i.e., APA) for your work.
However, it is compulsory for authors and researchers (including students) to contact IBSTPI® about their intended uses to replicate all or any portion of an IBSTPI® Standards Set. The negotiation with IBSTPI® will include a description of your work context (for-profit/non-profit, education, research, etc.), how and how much of the competencies and standards are intended to be used by requestors, and publication and/or research plans.
Based on the request, IBSTPI® will provide specific guidelines as to the use and subsequent publication of the competencies and performance statements and may suggest a payment or royalty, as appropriate.
Reprinting of and using the IBSTPI® Standards Sets, beyond personal uses, without permission is a violation of copyright law and intellectual property standards.
We invite those who reference or use IBSTPI® Standards in their work to share results and references to publications and presentations, etc. so that we can highlight them on the IBSTPI® website. Contact us here.
