Quality Programme The diagnostic work of the laboratory is based on a quality programme following quality assurance principles.	NO
Laboratory accredited (ISO 17025) for certain activities? If yes, the laboratory is accreditated according to ISO 17025. The pests and methods for which the laboratory is accredited is indicated unless the laboratory is accredited for a large number of pests and methods. In that case, a standard phrase 'contact the laboratory' is indicated.	NO
Laboratory participates in test performance studies? Test performance study (also referred to as ring tests or collaborative trials): Evaluation of the performance of one or more tests by two or more laboratories using defined samples (evaluation of a test).	YES
Laboratory participates in proficiency-testing Proficiency testing (evaluation of the competence of the laboratory): Establishing the competence of a laboratory in analysing defined samples using their established test.	YES
Laboratory offers training in diagnostics?	YES
