International Personnel Certification Association (IPC)
The International Personnel Certification Association (IPC), established in 1995 as International Auditor and Training Certification Association (IATCA), is the world association of personnel certification bodies. Its main aim is to streamline the operating practices of personnel certification bodies, as well as the criteria they use for the certification of persons.
IPC Management System Auditors is the first person’s certification scheme ever to have achieved recognition under the International Accreditation Forum Multilateral Recognition Arrangement (IAF MLA), with the original MOU being signed in 2017. IPC develops certification schemes for personnel that align with ISO/IEC 17024, ensuring global recognition and consistency. The organization also aims to provide assurance to industry, through the provision of consistent, competent personnel performance worldwide.
The International Accreditation Forum (IAF)
The International Accreditation Forum (IAF) is a global association of accreditation bodies, conformity assessment body associations and other organizations involved in conformity assessment in fields including validation and verification and the certification of management systems, products, processes, services, and persons. IAF endorsed IPC’s certification scheme by approving the IAF-IPC MLA Agreement. This means IPC’s certification programs are recognized under the IAF MLA sub-scope for “Certification of Persons – ISO/IEC 17024”. This endorsement allows IPC-certified individuals to be recognized internationally, as the MLA ensures mutual recognition among IAF member accreditation bodies
