I am looking to share my experience and knowledge with others by becoming a project management trainer. I am looking for something more along the lines of teaching the PM Fundamentals and how to become a strong project manager more than teaching a PMP exam prep type class.

Are there are recommended certifications or accredited companies that I should look into?

Assuming you have sufficient depth and breadth of experience in the profession, I'd suggest approaching the well established PM training firms in your area.

I'd also suggest that if you don't have any formal teaching credentials that you might wish to investigate a diploma or certificate program in adult learning.

Finally, you should be aware that PM training is an extremely cyclical industry and is heavily tied to how a given industry sector is doing as it is usually considered a discretionary expense in most companies. As such, you might find that it is more famine than feast depending on your company's context.
