Due to a high degree of integrity and confidence that is associated with IAS accreditation process, IAS accreditation is generally recognized as the highest standard in personnel certification accreditation.

The standard used by IAS to accredit certification bodies is an American National Standard as well as an ISO/IEC Standard. Accreditation to an international standard is extremely important for certification bodies that have global operations or aspirations. The American National Standard is important to facilitate government recognition.
