From July 13 to July 18, 2024, Perry Johnson Laboratory Accreditation, Inc. (PJLA) had the privilege of attending the Asia Pacific Accreditation Cooperation (APAC) Annual Meeting in the vibrant city of Dubai, UAE. This year’s event, hosted by the GCC Accreditation Center (GAC), the Emirates International Accreditation Centre (EIAC), and the Emirates National Accreditation System (ENAS), proved to be an exceptional gathering of global accreditation leaders, fostering collaboration and advancing the quality of conformity assessment services across the region.
APAC’s mission is to manage and expand mutual recognition arrangements (MRAs) among accreditation bodies. These MRAs are crucial for facilitating the acceptance of conformity assessment results, enhancing trade, and ensuring public safety.
As a leading accreditation body, PJLA is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of quality and integrity in conformity assessment. Our participation in the 2024 APAC Annual Meeting underscores our commitment to staying at the forefront of accreditation advancements and contributing to the global accreditation community.
As we return from Dubai, we are invigorated by the collaborative spirit and shared vision of our peers. We remain committed to advancing the field of accreditation and ensuring that our clients receive the highest level of service and support.
