Announcement

Beginning January 1, 2015, the Proactive Surveillance Program (PSP) has been discontinued, and in its place a fee will be required to accompany the submission of your recertification application upon expiration of your current certificate. All certifications are valid for five years from the issue date.

 

The Proactive Surveillance Program was developed to meet the requirements of ISO 17024. Shortly after implementation of the program, a new version of the standard was released that made Proactive Surveillance optional. We felt it would be a beneficial program for certified analysts, but in the end it did not serve the purpose we hoped it would. So effective Jan. 1, 2015 the program has been replaced by a simplified recertification fee.

 

All benefits associated with the PSP program, with the exception of your subscription to Vibrations magazine, will remain in place as part of certification. To maintain your subscription to Vibrations magazine, please renew your optional membership or join online at www.vi-institute.org/annualrenewal.

The Institute is issuing a Call for Papers for the 2015 Conference.
