Accreditation is a procedure in which certification of competency, authority, or credibility is presented.
Accreditation by an independent authority means that when you choose a certification body to review your activities you are choosing someone who has been reviewed against defined standards. You will know that they have their own documented operating system and procedures for looking after your interests. You know that accreditation by FICO GLOBAL has provided a level of assurance and recourse that is not normally available to business.
All organizations certificated by FICO GLOBAL accredited organizations may be independently verified and their current certification status checked. In addition all students who have successfully completed ASCB (E) accredited training courses are listed and may be independently verified.
There are many duties placed on government departments, local authorities and other agencies to confirm that trust is maintained. Whether it is health, water quality, food, consumer goods or transport safety, for example, the public sector provides the framework for the assurance that goods and services are safe and the environment we live in is clean and secure.

Companies big and small buy independent evaluations either through choice (to reduce the risk of product failure for example) or as a consequence of legal requirements (such as health and safety regulations). Most commonly these evaluations are calibration of equipment, product testing, and inspection of equipment and certification of quality management systems.
