Many members of AFTE, and those attending this conference, work for a forensic service provider that is accredited by either ANAB or ASCLD/LAB. Just one year ago these two accrediting bodies, both working in the forensic sector, merged. This presentation will address the following for the new ANAB accreditation program and requirements: the “Why” behind the merger, the “How” this merger benefits the forensic science community as a whole and your organization individually, the “Who” is involved in Forensic Accreditation at ANAB and the assessment activities, the “What” accreditation programs are available to you and a brief introduction to the recently published requirements, the “Where” to go if you want to know more, and the “When” the newly merged program and requirements will be effective.
