What if we’re not quite ready to undertake the full evaluations?
Maybe you’re at the start of your journey to improve your administration organisation or don’t feel ready to undertake the full evaluations. If so, you may apply to complete an interim accreditation. To achieve interim accreditation you will need to demonstrate a material and public commitment to implementing a programme of work, which will get your organisation ready to apply for full PASA Accreditation within an 18-month period.
