Established collaboratively by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) and the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC), World Accreditation Day (#WAD2023) takes place globally on the 9th June each year with the theme for 2023 being around supporting the future of global trade.

What is accreditation?

Accreditation is a formal process in which an external authority or organization assesses and certifies that an individual, institution, program, or service meets specific standards or criteria. It provides independent validation that the accredited entity has achieved a certain level of quality, competence, or compliance with established guidelines. It is often used across a multitude of sectors with ISO and AS standards being recognized globally whilst also applying across almost all businesses.

Why is accreditation important?

Accreditation plays a valuable role in advancing the objectives of the United Nations (UN). Organizations are instrumental in driving the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and enhancing their sustainability practices across economic, social welfare, and the environment.

How does accreditation help in supporting the future of global trade?

Accreditation plays a vital role in bolstering the future of international trade by offering businesses a framework of standards and guidelines to adhere to. This framework fosters trust and confidence among trading partners, paving the way for enhanced efficiency, effectiveness, and adherence to improved safety and quality standards. Moreover, accreditation can assist businesses in showcasing regulatory compliance, mitigating risks, and steering clear of penalties.

The benefits of accreditation

Obtaining accreditation from a reputable organization brings numerous benefits not only to businesses but also to the broader business economy, ultimately improving international trade.

  • For governments, accreditation assists in fulfilling regulatory and legislative responsibilities, reducing uncertainties in decisions related to the trading of goods and services.
  • For businesses, accreditation enables goods and services to bypass multiple tests and inspections. This streamlined process leads to a more satisfied client base and enhances reputation.
  • For consumers, accreditation provides assurance that a good or service meets specific quality standards. This instills confidence in consumers and promotes brand loyalty.

In summary, accreditation has a far-reaching impact, benefiting businesses, the economy, international trade by facilitating compliance, enhancing efficiency, and building trust among all stakeholders involved.
