Terminology: 

(P) TSTA – (Provisional) Teaching & Supervising Transactional Analyst – endorsed by EATA/ITAA to provide advanced training and supervision.  Advanced TA training and TA supervision can only be provided by PTSTAs and TSTAs.  Such (P)TSTAs are not required to be qualified in the same field as the student.  However, a sponsoring (P)TSTA is required to be in the same field unless this is impossible, in which case EATA may grant an exception.

Note: the only attendance certificate recognised by the TA community is for the TA 101.  For all other levels, certificates are given after demonstration of competence.  Attendance certificates may be signed by TA trainers/supervisors to meet cultural norms but have no status in terms of accreditation.

ICDTA – International Centre for Developmental Transactional Analysis

IDTA - Institute of Developmental Transactional Analysis (is affiliated to EATA)

EATA – European Association for Transactional Analysis

ITAA – International Transactional Analysis Association

EATA and ITAA qualifications are equivalent under the Training & Certification Council of Transactional Analysis, which brings together EATA, ITAA and WPATA (Western Pacific Association for TA - name currently undergoing change).

Note: the working language of EATA is English.  When written or oral exams are taken, the candidate is responsible for arranging translation.  There may be financial assistance available in special cases.
