*Please note, due to the current political situation, it is not possible to host volunteers in Belarus, Ukraine and Russia for reasons of their safety. At the moment SALTO EECA does not accredit organisations from the above-mentioned countries for the host role in the ESC Quality Label.

In total since 2011 SALTO EECA finalised over 870 accreditations - 55 of them were done in frames of European Solidarity Corps. Less than 10% of these accreditations was done on distance, mostly due to geographical distances or in case of reaccreditation of successful organisations. All remaining, so over 90% of them, hosted a visit of at least one accreditor.

Many of the current Quality Label holders or accredited organisations applied for accreditation for the second, third or even fourth time. There was also a number of applications sent to SALTO EECA that were rejected: majority of them after on the spot visit, however, a few were rejected due to lack of eligibility. Finally, a few accreditations were withdrawn - by SALTO EECA after a monitoring visit or on request of an organisation.
