Lab Certification

Federal and state regulatory agencies establish performance and certification standards for all testing laboratories.

To ensure that these standards met, the Certification Program conducts on-site inspections of the following types of laboratories:

• Medical (Clinical) Laboratories
• Water Testing Laboratories
• Milk Testing Laboratories
• Alcohol and Drug (Toxicology) Testing Laboratories

On-site inspections provide the opportunity for training testing laboratories on improved practices for better test result accuracy.
