The Australian Tutoring Association (ATA) Inc is the only Association of its kind in Australia and it represents tutoring organisations and educational tutors throughout Australia.

Officially launched on 7th March 2005, the ATA has members from around Australia. The ATA has been formed in recognition of the need to unify the tutoring industry nationally. It aims to represent tutors and tutoring organisations, act as a lobby group and raise the standard of tutoring in Australia.

All of our members share this vision. They are all committed to helping students. As ethical practitioners they agree to abide by the Code of Conduct. You are invited to read this Code. Widespread application of this Code will help protect clients and ensure that they are receiving a high standard of service and accountability. The ATA has had a very successful first year of operating and has grown rapidly. We celebrated the end of the first year of bringing together, lobbying for and setting ethical standards in the tutoring sector by launching our first newsletter Within Tuition.

On the 5th December, 2006, the Australian Tutoring Association held its second  Annual General Meeting in Croydon, NSW. At this meeting the first Committee of the ATA was elected. The 2006 - 2007 Committee is as follows:
