Call For Comments

In an effort to achieve some of the highest ethics and standards for institutional recruitment, The AIRC™ Certification process provides an opportunity for third parties, independent of a candidate agency under review, to make written comments on whether, in their opinion, the organization meets AIRC™ Certification Standards.

These reviews assist the AIRC™ Certification Board as it considers a certification application. Comments are strictly confidential and are not publicly shared.

Who May Comment

• Higher education institutions and programs
• Governmental or non-governmental organizations
• Individuals

Comment Procedure

1. Third-party comment must be written and signed and is limited to the candidate agency’s efforts to meet the AIRC Certification Standards.
2. All comments should cite the specific standard of concern and provide evidence related to the candidate agency’s adherence to that standard.
3. Signed comments must also indicate the organizational affiliation of the  individual commenting along with a description of the organization.

After review by AIRC staff to determine relevancy to the AIRC™ Certification Standards, written comments will be provided to the Certification Board and the agency applicant. Agency applicants will have the opportunity to review and respond to written comments.
