ACLASS Accreditation Services is fully recognized both domestically and internationally. We have signed mutual recognition arrangements (MRAs) with several U.S. accreditation bodies (A2LA, NVLAP, IAS) as well as 46 economies around the world. These economies include the United Kingdom, Canada, Mexico, Australia, all ILAC participating countries in Europe, Asia and South America. These arrangements facilitate the acceptance of test and calibration data between ACLASS accredited labs and the aforementioned economies.

Specifically, ACLASS is a signatory to the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) MRA (www.ilac.org) . Additionally ACLASS has signed the Asia-Pacific Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC) and the Inter-American Accreditation Cooperation (IAAC) MRAs. APLAC and IAAC are two of the recognized regions of ILAC. More information can be found at www.aplac.org and www.iaac.org.mx.

Accreditation Bodies around the world will typically pursue ILAC recognition through one of the recognized regional cooperations of ILAC. Because we recognize the value of information sharing at the regional level amongst the accreditation community, ACLASS chose to pursue both APLAC as well as IAAC recognition. We actively participate in the meetings held around the world.

ACLASS Accreditation Services is also recognized by several agencies of the United States government and military. Much of the U.S. government and military have acknowledged and embraced the ILAC multilateral recognition arrangement. In some cases, we have been working on specific agreements with various departments within the government as well as major market leaders in the private sector. For more information on federal, state and private sector recognition of ACLASS, please contact us at info@aclasscorp.com.

Domestically, ACLASS maintains recognition by NACLA.  Although NACLA has dissolved the MRA, ACLASS supports NACLA's restructuring efforts and continues to help move NACLA forward.
