ACCREDITATION

Of the more than 500 Association Management Companies (AMCs) worldwide, THM is part of a select group of less than 90 AMCs that has demonstrated the commitment and ability to consistently deliver the highest level of services based on association management best practices. In January 2005, THM achieved AMC Institute Accreditation and, in doing so, has become the preferred choice of associations, professional societies and not‐for‐profits. We have proven through an independent audit that they operate with the highest level of professionalism and responsibility, and consistently meet or exceed all industry requirements.

AMC INSTITUTE ACCREDITATION

The accreditation process offered by AMC Institute is the most demanding and comprehensive in the industry. The process is recognized and supported by the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) & The Center for Association Leadership, and is based on the American National Standards Institute’s (ANSI’s) “Standard of Good Practices for the AMC Industry,” which requires, among other things, that each standard of good practice be reviewed and updated regularly.

THM was evaluated on the following standards:

• Client Contracts: Review Procedures and Requirements
• Servicing the Client and Service Delivery Procedures
• Project (Service) Completion, Reviews, and Post Contractual Procedures
• Financial Management and Internal Controls
• Insurance Coverage
• Employee Recruitment and Selection
• Employee Training and Professional Development Procedures
• Subcontracting and Purchasing Requirements
• Record Keeping Requirements
• Internal and External Review Requirements

Once accredited by AMC Institute, THM must earn re‐accreditation every four years, demonstrating to an independent outside auditor that we continue to meet these high standards. And, should an association client ever have a complaint, the accreditation process provides them with important additional protections. Our most recent re‐accreditation was 2020.
