FAQs

What is an EQA programme?

An EQA programme is a quality assurance scheme designed to assess the performance of laboratories or testing facilities by comparing their results with those of other participating laboratories using the same methods or standards.

What are the benefits of participating in EQA programmes?

Participating in EQA programmes offers several benefits, including benchmarking performance against peers, identifying areas for improvement, enhancing confidence in test results, meeting regulatory requirements, demonstrating competence to clients or stakeholders, and fostering continuous professional development.
