Committees are the backbone of any association. The ATCTA has seven committees, covering a wide range of topics. Each committee is lead and staffed by volunteers with a special interest and dedication to the topic the committee is responsible for. We are confident that you find something of interest to you and your company that will be of direct business benefit. Attendance to committee meetings is free to all members. Whatever your reasons for joining, from networking or improving your business performance to helping shape the ITSM market and influencing practices and policies, we promise you these gatherings will be found invaluable.

The ATCTA wants to be used as the first port of call for information and support that we know is needed to maintain and grow your business. As the single trade association for the ITSM certification training sector, we also know how crucial it is for you to get close to your customers, understand them and win them over. Examples of business-improving services, you as an ATCTA (committee-) member have access to and can benefit from includes our quality standard, the Code of Conduct, our market research and benchmarking data, our network of suppliers and supplier-provided information, and our knowledge base.

Having a say in shaping the ITSM market that you operate in and work with could put you in a powerful and profitable position. ATCTA (committee-) membership allows you access to insight and intelligence that will help you raise our ITSM industry and profile to help improve customer/supplier interface and support the supply chain efficiencies. Our committees are enablers for topic-based networking, advice and guidance, improving quality standards and practices, and advocating the voice of our customers.

Given its unique position in the ITSM certification training market, as well as our market representation, the ATCTA is is the most influential representative body in the market in which our members operate. We will continue to exert influence in areas of commercially viable opportunities to accelerate the development of markets, the unity and quality levels and remove obstacles to profitable business. Being heard is crucial to influencing policy. ATCTA (committee-) members are able to create the right policy framework for business growth and prosperity via policy analysis and formulation, engaging in consultations, consensus building and promotion.

These contributions:

• advocate our customer’s policy that advances the growth and development of our industry;
• strengthen members’ policy agendas;
• provide a unified voice for the ITSM certification training industry.

Whether you are an independent accredited trainer or belong to a multi-national firm, having a collective voice heard that promotes increasing unity and quality levels is better than a single one.

Some examples of how ATCTA membership and committee contributions will help shape the ITSM markets:

• Establishment of the ATCTA Forum. A collaboration platform allowing for members and committee members to share, to create, and to execute on ideas that will positively influence the ITSM certification training industry to benefit our customers. The Forum will further allow for making the views of our members available to policy makers.
• Publishing, sharing and broadcasting of information and helpful resources our customers will benefit from
