In order to maintain AMC Institute Accreditation Status AMCs are required to apply for re-accreditation every four years. The process is similar to the initial accreditation process; however, since you already have documented policies and procedures in place, the re-accreditation process is focused on verifying, updating, and enhancing existing policies and procedures. 

The Re-Accreditation Process 

• Review the processes that were submitted during your original application.
• Submit the following forms:
  • Form 1002 - Declaration of Intent for AMC Institute Accreditation
  • Form 1003 - Licensing Agreement
  • Form 1004 - Review Report
  • Form 1005 - Reviewer’s Commitment Form (and most recent peer review)
  • Form 1006 - Accreditation Fee Schedule
  • AICPA Information Release form (for the reviewer to fill out)
• Submit the accreditation maintenance fee payment. (You do not need to complete Form #1001 or pay the original application fee for re-accreditation)
• You should plan to schedule your auditor's visit no later than one month prior to your accreditation anniversary date. The Reviewer's Review Report Form 1004 should be submitted no later than three weeks prior to your accreditation anniversary date to allow time for processing and confirmation that you have successfully maintained your AMC Institute Accreditation.
