business and regulatory needs
The use of technology to overcome technical barriers to international trade is something accreditation already plays a role within, and further work is ongoing to ensure a robust, trustworthy system is in place that supports business and regulatory needs.
Through the International Advisory services, UKAS has been able to support the National Accreditation Agency of Ukraine with free advice and training services and they will continue to do what they can to assist the Ukrainian colleagues in this difficult time.
