Professional consultation
Both subscribing and non subscribing organisations may use the IAC Advice Line and can benefit from our range of publications. However there are occasions where more in depth advice is needed on a range of queries or to assist to service development.
IAC offers a consultation service to any professional working within the field of intercountry adoption. This may include services to adoption team staff and managers, to legal departments or to other organisations working within the field.
Consultations may be 'indirect' through email, telephone and written advice, such as assistance in drafting procedures or writing information packs for applicants, or in face to face and may include assistance in inducting a new worker or manager in the field.
Consultancy for practitioners and others is tailored to the needs of the commissioning organisation and the personnel involved. This service is offered in its own right or as a service to complement training events.
The fee for consultancy assumes a half-day (3 hour) session. Hourly rates for shorter sessions are negotiable. All fees are inclusive of preparation and the provision of any materials which may be required.
Consultation can take place at the IAC training centre or within the locality of the commissioning organisation.
