High Containment Lab Accreditation Task Force

In 2008 the ABSA Council formed the Accreditation Task Force to investigate, plan, and develop standards for a possible high containment accreditation program. The purpose of a possible ABSA accreditation program is to accredit the biosafety management program of entities with high containment laboratories relative to technical and operational competence compatible with appropriate standards, and to provide an administrative assessment. The Task Force has been very productive over the past year and has nearly completed the first draft of a standards document. The first draft of the standards document will be available for review and comment to the membership in August or September of 2009. If you have any comments or suggestions for the Task Force please address them to info@absa.org
