Affiliate status is intended for two groups of people:
- those who have an interest in the access field and would like to receive some of the benefits that are available to Members, but do not necessarily want to become NRAC Auditors/NRAC Consultants
- those who may wish to seek membership of the NRAC at a later date, but do not currently have the training or experience to do so
Affiliate status is open to any individual or organisation and it does not represent a quality standard. There is no assessed application for Affiliates.
Affiliates receive the monthly news bulletin, which provides the latest information on legislation, products, seminars, technical matters and training.
Affiliates are also invited to conferences and other events organised for Members and Affiliates. These events include sessions on relevant topics, discussion groups and the opportunity to discuss issues with the NRAC management and meet other members.
Affiliates may also join the Yahoo Group electronic discussion forum (NRACUK) for both NRAC Members and Affiliates.
Affiliates adhere to a brief Code of Practice for NRAC Affiliates. Affiliates are not Members of the NRAC and may not represent themselves as such. They are not accredited to undertake access consultancy or access auditing work. If an Affiliate misrepresents themselves to clients as a Member of the NRAC, disciplinary proceedings will take place and the Affiliate status will be withdrawn.
The annual fee for Affiliates is £60, which is payable pro rata in advance to the end of the current financial year. For international Affiliates, this is £65. There is a reduced rate for access/disability groups and unwaged individuals of £12.
To apply for affiliate status, please complete an application form, which you can request by post, or download from the top of this page and send it with the appropriate fee to the NRAC Manager.
