Hoffman Institute International The Hoffman Process operates worldwide under the umbrella of Hoffman Institute International (HII). The HII was founded in 1991 by Bob Hoffman to manage the affairs of the international network of Hoffman centers, each of which presents the Hoffman Process in their respective countries. The role of HII is: - to set the standards and criteria for presentation and delivery of the Process. - to authorize licensees who have met international standards. - to monitor program delivery and quality. - to support the international growth and reputation of Hoffman worldwide. HII is managed by an elected executive board, whose members are also directors of Hoffman centers. It is a requirement of all licensees to meet every two years to discuss and agree standards, delivery, safety protocols and any relevant changes to the Process itself. These standards and criteria are monitored and enforced by the HII board.
