What
is the National
Accommodation, Recreation & Tourism Accreditation Program?
National
Accommodation, Recreation & Tourism Accreditation has been designed
to provide a process for checking and providing recognition of
compliance with relevant legal operational requirements. It is an
ongoing process that requires organisations to regularly review their
compliance regime in line with changing community attitudes and
legislative changes.
- This
is
accomplished through self-assessment and both desk and workplace audits.
- This
Accreditation
Package is not a process of comparison between organisations.
- This
Accreditation
Package is truly voluntary.
- This
Accreditation
Package is not to be seen as an imposition on members of the
administering organisations.
- This
Accreditation Package is provided in response to requests from within
the industry for a straightforward Accreditation Program that will meet
the requirements of external organisations that choose to limit their
participation to “Accredited” operations.
The
NARTA Inc. Accreditation Package is endorsed, recommended or accepted
as an appropriate accreditation methodology (at
July 2008, as this is an ongoing process)
by:-
- Outdoor
Recreation Industry Council of NSW
- Christian Venues Association
- Office of
School Education - Victoria
- Department
of Education and Children’s Services, South Australia
- Department of Education Tasmania
- National
Parks and Wildlife NSW
- NSW Maritime
Authority
- The
Salvation Army in Australia
- The Baptist
Union of Australia
- Wesleyan
Methodist Church of Australia
- Antiochian
Orthodox Church
Accreditation
of a supplier is not necessarily a requirement of these organisations,
however they all recoginse the value in assuring the appropriateness of
facilities and services to their members or students and have indicated
that in their opinion NARTA is one such methodology.
Education
Departments that do not recommend or endorse any particular providers
as schools make their own decisions include:-
- Department
of Education & Training Western Australia, which acknowledges “that
schools would respond favourable
towards those organisations that have gained NARTA accreditation”.
- NSW
Department of School Education.
- QLD
Department of Education and Training.
