This APAC training course is kindly hosted by the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS).
The 3-day training course is on the new editions ISO/IEC 17065 Conformity assessment — Requirements for bodies certifying products, processes and services and ISO/IEC 17067 Conformity assessment — Fundamentals of and guidelines for conformity assessment schemes.
The facilitators will provide insights on the changes to ISO/IEC 17065 and the substantially revised ISO/IEC 17067 that sets the basic understanding for all conformity assessment schemes, including accreditation schemes as required by ISO/IEC 17011:2017 Conformity assessment — Requirements for accreditation bodies accrediting conformity assessment bodies. Participants will be encouraged to share their experiences and ask questions.
Attendees are expected to be APAC Evaluators and APAC Member personnel (assessors, managers, accreditation scheme developers) that are either undertaking accreditation of product, process or service certification or are considering developing this type of accreditation scheme.
There is no event registration fee and refreshments breaks and lunch will be provided free of charge on the days of the event. All travel, accommodation, other meals, per diems, visa fees, travel and health insurance costs, etc. must be paid directly by the attendees or by their accreditation bodies. APAC does not provide funding for attendees to attend this event, unless you are an APAC Product Evaluator that will also attend the APAC Evaluator Product Workshop on 27-28 May 2027 (see below).
Please register using the link below. To complete the registration process attendees must upload evidence (e.g. letter, copy of email, etc.) that an APAC Member in their economy has approved their attendance at this APAC event.
Given the high number of evaluators that may wish to attend this workshop, only one (1) registration per APAC Member will be accepted until further notice. The person that attends this training is expected to share their knowledge and workshop materials with other relevant personnel from their accreditation body when they return from the workshop. The preference is to prioritise the registration of APAC Evaluators in the first instance. Please register as soon as possible. Registrations close on 16 April 2027.
Please note immediately after this 3-day training is a 2-day APAC Product Evaluator Workshop at the same venue. This workshop is only for APAC Product Evaluators. A separate registration is required for the workshop using the separate registration website.
