Enhanced Accreditation Details
The accreditation process with Certification Bodies has been refined to have a distinct scope. Part of these enhancements is assigning industry sectors to standards and schemes to define distinct areas of fields that accreditation may cover. The changes also include listing the key locations authorized to issue accreditation and the economies where the organization can accredit.
In effect, the Certification Body has an overall listing of sectors, key locations, and economies with their respective tabs. The overall listing of these scopes can be viewed through the following:
To view sectors, go to Standards and Schemes > select Standard > navigate Technical Sectors tab.
To view economies, go to Standards and Schemes > select Standard > navigate Country / Economy tab.
