What is APAC?
APAC is an international forum of accreditation bodies with the aim of harmonizing accreditation practice throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
APAC is a recognized regional cooperation by the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and membership of APLAC’s mutual recognition arrangement (MRA) is equivalent to membership of the ILAC MRA.
