Re-affiliation

All Clubs need to re-affiliate every 12 months to make sure that you're still complying with Arc's Clubs policies, so if you're on the Executive it's your responsibility to make sure your Club ticks all the boxes to stay affiliated with Arc. Some requirements for re-affiliation have changed since the beginning of 2015, so Section 4 - Existing Clubs Applying for Reaffiliation of the Clubs Handbook will give you the up-to-date guide to re-affiliating your existing Club.

All applications are received via SpArc during the mandatory submission period, so make sure you complete everything on time. 

Important dates: 

• Mandatory AGM Period Term 3, 2020 - TBD
• Reaffiliation Application Submission Period Term 3, 2020 - TBD (due 5pm Friday)
• Affiliation Reset Date: TBC

The Arc Clubs team will run AGM & Re-affiliation Workshops in late Term 2 and early Term 3. ONE Executive from each Club must attend a Re-affiliation workshop.
