This assessment tool is copyright © to AES and you use it at the discretion of AES. The self-assessment report is a component of the AES Best Practice Assessment and for your individual reference and use only.

Contact details provided by you in the course of completing the assessment will be stored on a secure database. They will be used to invite you to participate in an annual benchmarking survey and may also be used by AES for communication of newsletters, products and/or services.

Membership

All benefits provided under AES membership tiers are non-cumulative. Both Enterprise and Premium memberships grant access to all AES online member resource pages for all staff and board members within the organisation. Each Enterprise and Premium member organisation must designate a key contact person, who will hold the authority to manage and access AES benefits on behalf of the organisation.

Presentations and advisory services are available as outlined in the defined benefits for each membership tier. These services are delivered virtually, though in-person services can be arranged at an additional cost, excluding travel and accommodation expenses. Please note that AES adheres to all relevant provisions of the Australian Consumer Law and the Privacy Act 1988.
