For more than a decade, the Australian Community Industry Standard (ACIS) has been used as a benchmark for high-quality community care services.

This Joint Accreditation System of Australia and New Zealand (JASANZ) endorsed Standard provides an assurance of quality for people who are not covered by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) or Aged Care practice standards. Certification against this Standard is either mandated or recommended by personal injury schemes across Australia.

ACIS is highly recognised and provides best practice standards for support of people with disability and those with acquired injuries.

This Standard is periodically reviewed to ensure it represents contemporary expectations for service quality. The latest Standard to be released, ACIS 5.0, includes recommendations from the Disability Royal Commission, the Aged Care Royal Commission, and the NDIS Review.

To obtain ACIS Certification, Service Providers must adhere to rigorous standards and achieve demonstrable quality outcomes for service users.
