Laboratory accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 represents an international gold standard for laboratory quality assurance. The standard applies to many types of laboratories such as calibration, textile, feed, food, petroleum, metals, and even cannabis. Many cannabis regulatory bodies now require cannabis testing laboratories to be accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 and expect that accreditation will ensure appropriate and competent testing. This session will provide a broad overview of the ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard and will highlight common obstacles and difficulties the cannabis laboratory will need to consider in their quality management systems.
