Today, the firm is pleased to formally launch an
innovative e-licensing platform through which the AA1000AS v3 will be administered.
This platform transitions the licensing process –
from registering for an AA1000AS v3 license, to submitting payments, to logging client disclosures and issuing assurance statements and markings – to be
fully online.
Via this site, AccountAbility will grant Licensees a non-exclusive license to use the AA1000AS v3, Logo, and Markings in relation to their Sustainability Assurance Services. The easy-to-use, time-saving platform provides a seamless and integrated process for Assurance Providers to manage all licensing activities.
E-Licensing is now mandatory for all commercial use of the latest AA1000 Assurance Standard (AA1000AS v3), and as of January 1, 2021 the AA1000AS v3 is the only recognized AA1000 Assurance Standard.
