Other benefits for CASP Advisory Panel members include discounts for up to 25 enrollments in the AOAC Laboratory Proficiency Testing Program and discounts on AOAC Method Validation Training courses.

The CASP Advisory Panel (AP) is comprised of program supporters who meet quarterly to rank priority work items and monitor progress of the overall program. AP members are at the forefront of establishing the standards used by method developers, and by AOAC to evaluate methods so that resulting Performance Tested Methods and Official Methods of Analysis are fully validated and meet the analytical needs of the community. These AOAC adopted reference methods will result in reliable data to support effective compliance driven quality control of products and enhance public health.

Join the CASP AP today — your investment will help ensure the best available science drives public health policy and regulation. Learn more about this program in the Prospectus.
