The nice people at the UK Accreditation
Service sent their update today. You can read it
by clicking here. On the one hand the reactionary old fart in me thinks it
is a load of blah-blah-blah. On the other hand I realise that regardless
of what I might think, UKAS has a bigger bearing on my professional life than
any other body. Like it or lump it, this is the way forward. And like it or
lump it I am better off being aware of what they are up to and what they are
suggesting.
The biggest problem with
their updates is that they say a lot without saying very much. What exactly is
an ISO standard, and what is a mistaken interpretation of an overworked
assessor?
The cynic in me would take
them far more seriously if they openly published their standards rather than demanding one hundred and sixty
quid for a copy of them.
