Outplacement Services
ACF Europe strives to support the interests of the career management industry on a European wide basis, focusing on the interests of the industry as a whole.
The aims of the organization are to:
- Provide a European-wide focus for the advancement of the practice of career management
- Foster public and professional understanding of the industry
- Ensure consistent standards of high competence and integrity
- Monitor, gather and disseminate information relevant to the industry
- Liaise in matters relevant to the industry and to participate actively in their resolution
- Work with other professional industrial and government bodies on matters of mutual concern
- Provide a forum for discussion of industry problems
- Organise regular European conferences
Member firms are well established companies with a minimum of two years of experience in outplacement. Currently 140 firms are ACF Europe members, which represents a majority of the firms in the outplacement industry. It is important to unite our voices and increase our influence with lobbying efforts that can impact political decisions touching our industry.
In the United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and Austria members are organised in a chapter, a national assocation. In other countries where no chapter exists, like e.g. the Nordic countries, Turkey, Ireland, Italy, Spain and other countries, members are informed directly via the ACF Europe secretariat. Members underwrite the code of conduct and ethics.
