Can I use information from Global ACI publications in my own organisation’s documentation?

19 Jan 2026

Global ACI encourages the use of its publications and brochures by organisations wishing to use such material for areas related to education, standardisation, accreditation, improving the acceptance of the Global ACI Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) or other purposes relevant to Global ACI’s area of expertise or endeavour.

Global ACI’s publications and brochures may be printed or distributed in full without need for formal permission from Global ACI.

Organisations seeking permission to reproduce material from Global ACI’s documents must contact the Global ACI Secretariat. The request for permission should clearly detail:

  • The Global ACI publication, or part thereof, for which permission is sought.
  • Where the reproduced material will appear and what it will be used for.
  • Whether the document containing the Global ACI material will be distributed commercially, where it will be distributed or sold, and what quantities will be involved.
  • Any other background information that may assist Global ACI to grant permission.

The document in which the reproduced material appears must contain a statement acknowledging Global ACI’s contribution to the document. Global ACI’s permission to reproduce its material only extends as far as detailed in the original request. Any variation to the stated use of the Global ACI material must be notified in advance in writing to Global ACI for additional permission.
