Strata Community Association (NSW) Professional Standards Scheme
Pike & Tombleson Strata is a proud member of SCA (NSW), the peak body for the strata sector in NSW.
The NSW Government under the Minister for Better Regulation and Innovation has approved a Professional Standards Scheme. This formal recognition by the NSW Government is the first of its kind for the property services sector in Australia.
The scheme has been approved for an initial period of 5 years commencing from 1st July 2021. This approval means our business, Pike & Tombleson Strata, must adhere to a Code of Ethics including professional standards, and is monitored by Professional Standards Australia.
​
What does this mean for you?
At the forefront of this scheme is a further commitment to consumers to ensure high professional standards across the strata industry in NSW. This is in line with various other initiatives across NSW, including the NSW Government plan to rebuild the construction sector and restore confidence and professionalism.
​
The Professional Standards Scheme will bring to our clients a range of benefits, including:
​
-
SCA (NSW) will oversee and self-regulate the conduct of all members within a structured professional framework.
-
In addition to our own internal complaints handling process, the Professional Standards Scheme brings a further robust and independent complaints handling process, ensuring clients can be assured of an independent review and response.
-
An increase in Continual Professional Development (CPD) requirements for Strata Managers and Licensees in Charge, ensuring the industry remains up to date, educated and aware of their on-going responsibilities to the consumer.
​
At Pike & Tombleson Strata, we are committed to supporting the strata industry, contributing to the overall improvement, and providing an excellent customer experience. The introduction of the Professional Standards Scheme will assist us in meeting these goals for our clients.
