Charity Commission Endorsement
The Charity Commission, the independent regulator of charities in England and Wales, has endorsed the ACRE Good Practice Quality Standard as part of the Commission’s Quality Standards Endorsement Programme.
The Commission's endorsement process assesses whether the charity's quality standards are consistent with the Commission's guidance Hallmarks of an Effective Charity and whether the accreditation process meets the requirements of the Commission's Terms of Endorsement.
Achievement against the ACRE Standard is confirmed by a robust process of external Peer Review. ACRE Peer Reviewer training is accredited by the National Open College Network at A-level standard.
