Advisory Committee for Introductory Periods and Incidents (ACII)

The ACII gives advice about student safety during the introductory periods for the student organizations (for example, student associations, study associations, sport organizations, KEI and ESN). The ACII also collects all reports of incidents from within student organizations during the entire year and can provide the board of student organizations with advice on the treatment of incidents if necessary. Student organizations are asked to report all incidents to the ACII. The ACII is an advisory committee that means that the associations remain responsible for the actual safety within the student organizations.

Duties of the ACII

• Provide information about safety and risks during the introductory period of the student associations, study associations, sport organizations, KEI and ESN.
• Support these student organizations in drawing up a safety manual for the introductory period:
  > Explanation of the ACII Safety Plan.
  > Format for a safety plan.
• Every year, provides students organizations' safety plans with advice.

• Is the point of contact in case of incidents and advises on the handling of incidents throughout the year, including outside of induction periods.

History of ACII

ACII was founded in 1998 by the student associations and the Boards of the University of Groningen and the Hanze University of Applied Sciences Groningen. In recent years it has been responsible for:

• the increasing quality of the safety manuals,
• the increasing awareness of the risks of, for example, lack of sleep or alcohol consumption,
• the increasing responsibility on the part of the associations for the introductory activities.
