Six steps to accreditation

01

Application

Submit your application with scope details, documented management system, and key personnel qualifications. Reviewed within 5 business days.

03

On-Site Assessment

USQAS technical assessors evaluate competence, impartiality arrangements, and operational effectiveness through witness assessments.

04

Nonconformity Resolution

Any nonconformities are documented and tracked. You submit corrective action evidence which we verify for effectiveness.

05

Accreditation Decision

An independent committee reviews the full assessment report and makes the final impartial accreditation decision.

06

Ongoing Surveillance

Annual surveillance assessments and a full reassessment every four years maintain the integrity of your accreditation.
