Technical Releases and representations: IT

On this page you can view a timeline of Technical Releases and representations on Information Technology issued by the Institute, and information on how to find and obtain copies of these documents.
ICAEW has issued Technical Releases and representations on IT issues since 1972.

Timeline

1972–1991

Technical Releases on aspects of IT were issued as part of the numerical sequence of technical releases between 1972 and late 1991.

1991

The IT Faculty was established in 1991 and subsequently issued a number of Technical Releases on IT matters. In 2019 it was renamed the Tech Faculty.

1992

From the start of 1992 the numerical sequence was replaced by named series, as detailed below. All Technical Releases issued since 1992 have been numbered sequentially in the year of publication prefixed by the name of the relevant series; for example, FIT 1/96.

1992–1996

The first named series for Technical Releases was simply called FIT which covered Technical Releases on Information Technology from 1992 to 1996.

1997–

Since the FIT series ceased, Technical Releases on IT-related matters have been published in a number of different series. One Technical Release was issued by the IT Faculty in 2007 with the series name ITF; other releases on IT have appeared in the TECH and AAF series.

The IT Faculty became the Tech Faculty in June 2019.

Representations

Representations were issued by the IT Faculty without using a named series until 2007 when the first ITF Rep was issued. A number of ITF Reps were issued during 2007:

Since 2008, representations relating to IT have been published in the main sequence of ICAEW REPs.
