On 16 January 2025, the new name for the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC) became the Immigration Advice Authority (IAA)
Communities of Practice (CoP) help immigration advice organisations, both voluntary sector and for-profit, to work together to develop a more integrated, collaborative and client-centred legal advice system. We do this by sharing information and mutual learning, whilst exploring ways to add value to each other’s work.
We currently have the following partnership networks available:
“The community of practice has been a brilliant resource for support.” (Immigration Advisor)

If you would like to join any of the Communities of Practice, please email Julie at Refugee Action. We aim to reply within one week.
'Thanks for the most recent CoP meeting. I can’t tell you how brilliant it is to be involved in this network!'
'Thanks for everything. We’d be lost without you all there to make it navigable.'
'James at FIAP was a great help. As I’m the only OISC trainer in my organisation, it was good to have someone to bounce ideas off.'
