Regulations

Regulations revised 2025

ARTICLE 1. SUBJECT MATTER

The purpose of these Regulations is to lay down the rules governing the functioning of AICA and to supplement the Statutes of AICA.

ARTICLE 2. MEMBERSHIP

2.1. Application procedure

Applications for membership in AICA International shall be typewritten on the downloadable AICA Biographical Form, written in one of the three working languages of the Association: English, French or Spanish and sent to the Secretary General (see Statute 2.1.).

Applicants to the Open Section shall send the AICA Int. Biographical Form to the Secretary General, in which they shall specify the names of two sponsors who are members of the Board with voting rights in all matters. Their forms are then forwarded to the Chair of the Electoral and Membership Committee. 

Applicants wanting to join a National Section follow the procedure of a given Section. The Presidents of National Sections send Biographical Forms mentioned above to the Secretary General, copied to the Office coordinator of AICA. The Presidents of the Sections and the members of the Electoral and Membership Committee are responsible for scrutinising applications closely, with AICA criteria in mind (see Statute 3.1).

The Electoral and Membership Committee considers all applications on the basis of the criteria referred to in Art. 3.1. of the Statutes, and without any discrimination based on age, race, gender, disability, or religion.

The Electoral and Membership Committee is obliged to ask the National President, or the International President in case of the Open Section, for clarification or extra information before rejecting a member application.

The Chair of the Electoral and Membership Committee presents the agreed list of names to all members at least 30 days before the General Assembly, with any accompanying comment that may be required.

The agreed list is then presented during the General Assembly for confirmation, by majority vote.

After receiving this endorsement, new members acquire all privileges described in the Statutes Article 3.5 in conjunction with the Statutes Article 3.4. 

2.2 Transfer between Sections

Members wishing to transfer from one Section to another must apply for acceptance by the new Section in question. The new Section needs to inform the Secretary General about the transfer and the updated contact details of the member, but there is no need to reapply to AICA International.

2.3. Expulsion procedure

a) The Board is responsible for discipline, arbitration and conciliation. The Board exercises these duties, in cases where there has been a breach of the Statutes or the Regulations or acting on a decision by the General Assembly. The Board may consider the activities of a member of the Association to be in conflict with the professional dignity or the common interests of the membership. It may act ex officio, or on a complaint. However, no sanction may be imposed without allowing the member concerned to present her or his case. The member concerned may choose to do this in writing or in person. In the latter instance, they are entitled to ask to be accompanied by anyone they consider helpful or supportive to their cause. An offending member may be expelled, if the General Assembly resolves that the gravity of the deed warrants such a measure. Alternatively, they may be formally reprimanded or warned.

b) The Board may be called on to arbitrate, at the request of any parties concerned, in the event of a dispute between two or more members or between one or more members and a third party.

c) The Board exercises the same duties and obligations in relation to National Sections which are in breach of the Statutes or Regulations, in case of serious misconduct, or in consequence of a decision of the General Assembly. A National Section which is under investigation, on suspicion of a serious misdemeanour may be temporarily suspended, by decision of the Board. Before this happens, the Section, or its official nominee, will be given the opportunity of answering the written charge(s) laid before it by the Board within a period of three months. After which the matter will be either dropped, or receive of a formal reprieve, reprimand or warning from the Board, or referred to the next General Assembly, during which period the temporary suspension may remain in force.

d)   Sections which fail to pay their annual fees for two years in succession will be formally notified by the Secretariat, in two separate mails, with an interval of at least one calendar month between each mail, that they run the risk of suspension and eventual expulsion from the Association, if they fail to catch up with their payments, by a specific date. 

e) Sections experiencing genuine difficulties with their payments, owing to causes beyond their control, such as hyperinflation, currency restrictions or civil commotion, are under an obligation to negotiate with the Treasurer and the Board a solution to their temporary difficulties.

f) Individual members of Sections which have been suspended or expelled from the Association are encouraged by the Secretariat to contact the Secretary General, with a view to applying to join the Open Section pending the re-establishment of their own National Section. They can also join another National Section of their choice.
