IAC Fee for Accreditation Materials

The laboratory must first order the Accreditation Materials (consisting of The Standards and the Online Accreditation Application) from their division. The one-time fee to purchase the Accreditation Materials is $200. Notification of periodic updates to The Standards are automatically sent, free of charge, to every laboratory that places an order. Ordering the Accreditation Materials does not obligate the laboratory to apply for accreditation within any given period of time.
