What is Accreditation? The purpose of accreditation is to make sure that all organisations that become members of Assistance Dogs Europe are committed to meeting the agreed Minimum Standards of ADEu. In this way, ADEu can maintain a good reputation, based upon the equally high standards of all its member organisations. The accreditation test involves an experienced member of the "assistance dogs field" spending a few days with an organisation, observing and assessing its work. It is hoped that the organisation itself and the assessor too, will learn a lot from sharing this experience. Accreditation has to be renewed every five years. To know which month is available for an assessment, please contact the secretariat. The fee for an accreditation assessment is 650 euros. The yearly fee for fully accredited members is 150 euros in 2012 Accreditation Manual ~ How the Assessment Looks Like Accreditation Process ~ Paperwork to Send Assessment Scheme Accredited Members Guidance Notes on Dog Training ~ Guidance Notes on Dog welfare Guidance Notes on Clients and Dogs ~ Guidance Notes on Kennels Guidance Notes on Administration and Organisation
