Welcome to the Association of Charity Independent Examiners (ACIE)

ACIE was launched in 1999 as an association for people who carry out IE, to give support to independent examiners and to provide information relevant to their examination work. Since that time, it has also become a national voice in influencing policies with regard to government legislation. Its activities have the support of the Charity Commission.

ACIE is the only professional body whose sole focus is Independent Examination and its Full Membership procedure is the only route available to people wanting to have their work in Independent Examination scrutinised and validated.

At January 2009, ACIE had over 550 members, of whom over 140 were Full Members. These members cut across the whole range of people who carry out independent examination - from volunteers who are competent enough to examine the accounts of, say, their local youth group, to professional accountants in major national firms.
