Accreditation vs Certification in Conformity Assessment

“Accreditation” and “Certification” are oftentimes used synonymously, and while related and equally important in the conformity assessment system, the two terms mean quite different things. Using the terms appropriately, allows for better understanding of conformity assessment and the role that each term plays.

• Accreditation is a third-party attestation of the competence of an entity to specified requirements (e.g., international standards). It is used to confirm an entity has the appropriate competence and management system to properly perform conformity assessment activities, such as certification of organizations, persons, systems, processes, or products within a defined scope
• Certification demonstrates that a product, service, system, process, or person meets (conforms to) specified requirements (e.g., international standards), confirmed by a third-party entity.

Quality and Risk in the Cannabis Supply Chain.

Description:

The quality of cannabis products is impacted by many different factors. From seed to sale, positive and negative influences can affect the quality of the product. Aspects, such as soil composition and consistency, harvesting, processing, extracting, sampling, sample preparation, and packaging, all feed into the final quality of cannabis products. Risks along the supply chain can be identified and eliminated or reduced to enhance quality. Testing of cannabis products by an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory is one way to reduce risks and ensure the quality of products. Accreditation of laboratories by an internationally recognized accreditation body can demonstrate the laboratory's ability to produce precise and accurate test data, through continuous oversight to ensure technical competence is maintained. Join this webinar where we will evaluate factors that could influence the quality of cannabis products from seed to final packaging.
