Join our live webinar on 05.27, 2026 from 14:00 CET, to Unlock the secrets to successful accreditation for food pathogen testing!
Food pathogen testing is a cornerstone of food safety, regulatory compliance, and global trade. For food producers, accredited methods mean trusted results, recognized by authorities and accepted in international markets. ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation is the global benchmark that proves your laboratory’s competence, reliability, and data integrity - and it’s fast becoming a must-have requirement.
This webinar gives you a clear, practical roadmap to ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation for microbiological food testing, including:
- Why accreditation is essential - and when it becomes mandatory
- How to prepare for your first ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation
- Key requirements for microbiological methods
- Practical tools to support a smooth accreditation process
- Common audit findings (and how to avoid them)
- How to manage non-conformities and implement effective corrections
Whether you are starting your accreditation journey or strengthening existing systems, this session will equip you with practical insights and actionable strategies to achieve compliance, credibility, and international recognition.
