UKAS is proud to have published its Annual Report for the financial year 2021/2022. Building on last year’s new format, the Annual Report contains a range of articles that reflect on UKAS’s activities and demonstrate the value accreditation brings to many areas of society.
All articles share a common theme of technical rigor, individually examining aspects of how it is embodied, applied and delivered by accreditation.
