Association Services Group Achieves AMC Institute Accreditation
(LaGrange, GA, July 20, 2024) – Association Services Group announced that it has recently been awarded accreditation by AMC Institute, the global trade association representing the Association Management industry.
Among 500-plus Association Management Companies (AMC) worldwide, just 80 have achieved AMC Institute Accreditation, demonstrating the commitment and the ability to deliver the highest level of professional management services to association and not-for-profit clients. These AMCs are the recognized choice of associations and not-for-profit organizations.
“ASG is proud to have earned and maintained this valuable endorsement of our business practices since 2008,” said Katie Oxford, chief executive officer. “We place the highest value on our client’s trust. Our accreditation shows just how committed we are to solid business, to supporting our team members, and in turn, to equipping our associations to reach their goals.”
Administered by AMC Institute, AMC Institute Accreditation is recognized and supported by ASAE & The Center for Association Leadership and is based on the ANSI Standard of Good Practices for the AMC Industry. ANSI requires that the standard be reviewed and updated regularly to remain an approved standard. Measurable performance practices include contracts and service delivery; employee recruitment, training and professional development; and financial management and internal controls, among others. AMCs must earn re-accreditation every four years, demonstrating to an independent outside auditor that they continue to meet the standard.
“We applaud Association Services Group on this significant achievement,” AMC Institute Chair Nick Ruffin said. “AMC Institute accreditation requires that association management firms demonstrate adherence to operational and ethical best practices, as outlined in the AMC Institute Standard. Accreditation distinguishes Association Services Group’s ongoing commitment to leadership in association management.”
