IRCA/RABQSA accredited certificate

I am willing to undergo ISO:27001 certification. I want to know what difference does it makes whether the institute/organisation which is providing me training will give IRCA/RABQSA accredited certificate.

Answer:
They have the same functions (basically both can certify individual professionals: ISO 27001 Lead Auditor, Lead Implementer, etc) and they are competitors, so the difference can be that IRCA maybe is more known internationally, although RABQSA also has good prestige.

By the way, a course accredited (by IRCA or RABQSA, or any other), have more international prestige that one course that is not accredited by a entity with good prestige, although probably you can obtain the same knowledge.
