Information

The IOAS has clients in over 20 countries and has personnel from 14 countries amongst its Board, Accreditation Committee and staff who, in turn, link with their own networks. 

The IOAS is respected by many for its wide knowledge of conformity assessment in organic agriculture, of regulations and for its objective perspective and commitment to the overall goal of organic integrity.

Information specific to certification and accreditation we offer through training but we also provide much information through this web site and through our bimonthly email update service.

E-News service

The E-News service started in January 2005 as a service directed primarily at government authorities active or developing programmes in the oversight of the organic sector. It has evolved into an update received by a much wider range of organisations concerned with, and influencing, the regulation of the organic sector. 

The update is sent to your desk top six times per year in plain email format, the circulation list is anonymous, you can unsubsribe at any time and ..... its free!
