Associate Accreditation
Associate Accreditation is open to anyone who supports the work of the Addiction Counsellors of Ireland (ACI). Please note that this category is not a certification of competence awarded by ACI. Associate Accreditation does not entitle the holder to practice as an ACI Accredited Member, or to present themselves as a specialist in the field of addiction.
As an Associate Member you will have access some of the benefits, resources, and networking opportunities provided by ACI.
This category is best suited to people who have an interest in the field of addiction. For example, students entering their first year of studies or individuals in roles supporting addiction professionals. You may also consider Associate Membership when working towards Pre-Accredited Membership.
Students Go Free
We offer one year of free Associate Accreditation to students enrolled in a recognised QQI training course in Addiction Studies or Addiction Counselling. For more details, please contact our office directly.
