Charter

AICDP was formed in 2014 in response to the fact that our Profession was becoming more internationalised and that the professional institutions and groups that already existed in support of our senior professionals had not evolved sufficiently in relation to this change as their focus was national. Driven by the express wishes of our membership we created a high level international discussion/working group to address this issue. The group was designed firstly to represent our members both within and outside our profession. The requirement was to be action focussed, operate in a way that was unique in the Profession and identify what needed to be fixed and fix it. All of our ambitions, initiatives and programmes are to be delivered by harnessing the extensive talents of our membership and blending them to produce relevant and achievable programmes that add value to our Profession.

  • The identification and publication of our DNA is the touchstone for our association, it tells us who we are and what we are and will continue to be our guiding principle and mantra
  • We are committed to establishing an Internationally recognised Educational Pinnacle together with a structured pathway to ascend to that pinnacle
  • We are committed to providing both Best Practice and Best in Class programmes that are Internationally transportable
  • We are committed to the creation of a Centre of Excellence providing unparalleled Knowledge, Competency and Consultancy at an International level
    We are committed to the creation of an International Credit Directors Index that adds value to Economic forecasting
  • As we progress as an Association and achieve our Goals and Objectives, we will be constantly mindful of the emerging challenges that will undoubtedly face our Profession. We will remain both vigilant and flexible in relation to those challenges and realign our considerable talents and resources to meet them.
