FCCA Agency Accreditation

---

The Florida Code Compliance Association (FCCA) offers an agency accreditation program for code compliance agencies. The accreditation program is designed to reflect best practices in the areas of code compliance involving agency administration, staff, professional development, case management, and other programs and responsibilities.

The FCCA accreditation standards ensure a uniform and consistent level of professionalism and level of service across all accredited code compliance agencies throughout Florida and promotes public trust through accountability and transparency to the communities in which they serve.  Code compliance agencies can operate in confidence knowing that their code compliance operations have been reviewed and approved by a formal third party, have demonstrated that staff are competent, and can be considered among the best code compliance agencies in Florida.

The standards have been developed to apply to both large and small agencies. Applications are reviewed and approved by the FCCA and, upon approval, agencies are awarded with a Certificate of Agency Accreditation.  Accreditation must be renewed every four (4) years.

FCCA Agency Accreditation Fees

Reaccreditation must be completed every four (4) years following the original accreditation award in accordance with the terms for agency accreditation found within the  FCCA Accreditation Application Packet for Code Compliance Agencies.

For any questions regarding the application for agency accreditation or reaccreditation, please email us at fcca@fccaonline.org

 This process creates an auditable crosswalk between each accreditation standard and the documentation demonstrating compliance. Agencies may also upload proofs of compliance, assign responsibilities, track progress, monitor accreditation status, and maintain documentation electronically, making both the initial accreditation and future reaccreditation more efficient and organized.
