What is Certification?

Certification is a procedure by which an accredited certification body recognizes an organization under a set of specified requirements. When an organization becomes certified, they demonstrate to their customers and stakeholders that they are a reputable, recognizable organization and that their products, services or management systems complies with the strictest standard requirements, guidelines and customer expectations.
