In these days, teamwork, transparency and collaboration are essential for innovation. Reality is changing and there is an increasing use of digital means and formulation of work processes through them. Accreditation must be present in these processes and ensure that those engaged in the profession are aware of and act within the framework of the accreditation principles.

The direct impact is already evident today. Basic processes are answered by the various AI softwares. Some of the answers they receive are AI-based and we must check and ensure that there is indeed an appropriate response to the findings when performing activities to test professional competence. The use of technological means must be in accordance with national, regional and international requirements. Those who participate influence these activities.

We are involved on a regular basis in the activity and, as required, in supporting our partners in our activities and those who have signed MOU’s with us.

The parallel work required these days at ILAC and Global Accreditation Cooperation Incorporated requires many hours of meetings reviewing documents and agreements between all members. Thanks to all those involved in the work, the consultants to the Secretariat and the representatives who volunteer their time and expertise. They work for the success of our activities and the implementation of the decisions of all ILAC members.
