Legal Disclaimers
Educational Provider Status
The Global Immigration & Mobility Institute is a professional, non-regulated education and certification provider. GIMI does not provide immigration advice, legal services, visa application services, or any regulated professional services.
Professional Certification
GIMI certification demonstrates that a practitioner has completed rigorous training and met our professional standards. However, certification does not constitute a license to practice law or provide regulated immigration advice. Certified practitioners must ensure they operate within the legal and regulatory frameworks of their jurisdictions.
No Client Relationship
Nothing on this website or in GIMI’s training materials creates a client-practitioner relationship. Individuals seeking immigration advice or services should consult qualified legal professionals or regulated immigration advisors in their jurisdiction.
No Guarantee of Outcomes
GIMI provides professional education and certification. We do not guarantee employment outcomes, business success, or any specific professional results from completing our programs. Individual career outcomes depend on many factors beyond educational credentials.
