FSA ID also talks about its recognition of regional accreditation councils. Indeed, recognition of a regional accreditation group is open to regional associations of accreditation bodies whose purposes include maintaining regional multilateral recognition agreements that recognize the equivalence of their members' accreditations. The IAF evaluates regional accreditation groups through a process similar to that used to evaluate a single accreditation body.
Delving further into accreditation councils, so do national accreditation bodies
Where on top will be the IAF (INTERNATIONAL ACCREDITATION FORUM)
The International Accreditation Forum (IAF) is a worldwide association of accreditation bodies and other bodies interested in conformity assessment in the areas of management systems, products, processes, services, personnel, validation and verification and other similar conformity assessment programs. Going further, the international forum includes regional accreditation councils.
The task of accreditation bodies is to implement and administer the accreditation program of validation/verification bodies and/or certification bodies for management systems, products, processes, services, personnel and other conformity assessment programs.
Going further, there are system certification bodies that have proven and proven expertise in their work and are accredited by recognized accreditation bodies.
