Founding Representatives
Member Organisations
IAAC provides a framework for participation by national and international organisations, associations, schools and training centres.
Confirmed member profiles will identify the organisation, country, membership category and relevant contact information. Membership and specialist accreditation are distinct statuses and will be presented separately.
National Chapters & Country Representation
National Chapters and Country Representations support the development and coordination of IAAC activities within their approved scope.
Representation requires a formal IAAC appointment or recognition. Membership alone does not confer authority to act as a national representative.
Confirmed representatives, their responsibilities and official contact details will be published as appointments are made.
Academic & Professional Cooperation
IAAC seeks cooperation with universities, sports science faculties, educational institutions and qualified professional bodies.
Areas of cooperation may include research, instructor education, methodological development, conferences and the exchange of professional knowledge.
Institutional partnerships will be listed only where the relationship has been formally confirmed, with its scope clearly described.
Shared Principles, Independent Organisations
Participating organisations retain their own identities and operate within their respective legal and organisational frameworks.
Cooperation within IAAC is guided by shared requirements for competence, ethics, safety and accountability. Membership does not automatically authorise an organisation to issue IAAC qualifications, accredit instructors or represent the alliance.
Join the Network
Organisations and qualified professionals interested in cooperation are welcome to introduce their work and areas of expertise.
Please include your organisation’s name, country, website, principal activities and the type of cooperation you wish to explore.
