Main changes for 2023

The role of membership organisations (previously known as nominating organisations) has changed.

This means that applications will no longer include the option to add rankings and citations from nominating organisations, but applicants will still be able to seek guidance from any number of relevant membership organisations they wish to approach.

See new ACCIA process for awards scheme applications for further information.

Following the publication of the government’s consultation response on NHS Pension Scheme: proposed amendments to scheme regulations important changes relating to partial retirement and continuation of awards will also be introduced from 1 April 2023. Applicants should review the retirement section of the ACCIA guidance for further information.
